Suspension Conundrum.

[gthompson999]

Hi all,

My independant shop has been trying to get my 2002 S (55K miles) aligned and the rear passenger side remains out of spec. They looked at the rear suspension and diagnosed that the rear passenger strut is bent by taking measurements across both rear corners.

So I am stuck with the conumdrum of whether to change just the one corner with an OEM part (~$380) and a couple of hours of labor or change all 4 corners with aftermarket parts (leaning to Bilstein HDs, don't want to go with a full coilover) and a potential 8 hours of labor.

Do you think that it makes sense to do all 4 now given that in the next few years I could have maintenance to do on the other 3 corners (is that likely)?

Or what other options am I missing?

Thanks

Gareth
