Hey everyone, I'm a little confused here..... 850 1997

I have a clunking noise coming from the front end of my baby (both passenger + driver's) and I was told from 2 different mechanics 2 different things... Here goes...

Mechanic number one said that my "spring saddles" are bad and need to be replaced.

Mechanic number two said that my strut bushings are bad.

What about the struts themselves or the strut mounts? Are the mounts another word for saddles?

Are these the same thing?

Are they easy to repair?

Do I sound like an idiot?
