I've determined struts need to replaced.

I'm tempted to go with local supplier and get Sensitrak but common Bricker Wisdom has it that Bilstein Touring is a good choice for family machine.

When I push down on fender, I can feel vertical play between exposed rubber bushing and shock tower. Both sides seem equal.

When I change the struts I may buy the strut bearings to have on hand, but what else would I need to replace that would cause this vertical play at top of strut?

Thanks in advance

Norm
