Hi all,
I'm looking to replace front struts on my V90 Wagon (122k miles). The car drives OK for now (some creaks from the suspension, but nothing that seems major). At
this age and mileage though I would expect most rubber components to be
deteriorated enough to warrant replacement (hot summers where I live). Would it be a good idea then to replace the strut mounts at the same time as the struts and the spring seats? The OEM mount kits seem to cost quite a bit more than the aftermarket ones from FCP groton (about $110 vs $32 per side), but so far I was trying to stay away from aftermarket stuff at FCP... Which mount kit should I go with?
Thanks,
Vlad
