Front Strut prices 850 1995

What makes you think you need to replace the struts at 130,000?

My 1995 has 125,000 and I have strut mount/seat spring "noise" at the driver side. The passenger side had this problem two years ago and it was repaired with a new strut mount and seat spring. With this prob again, I am thinking of swapping out the struts of both sides, and changing the strut mount/seat spring for driver side. I want to use bilstein struts(expensive at $150 per side), compared with oem (about $100 per side). I suspect the ride will be better, but my wallet will be about $500-600 lighter.

How long can I go on busted spring/seat and strut mount?
