Thanks for the responses. Sounds like the prudent thing to do is just replace them. FCP offers an SKF brand and Uro brand. I read in some of the archived posts that the mounts provided by FCP were suspect? Does anyone have any comments on these? The SKF option has an 'OEM' in the part number, not sure if that means it is an OEM part?

Also, if I am redoing the struts, will I need a strut bellow/boot? Finally, is a strut spacer needed on all installations? Would it be wise to order a few and then return them if they are not needed?

It should be obvious this is my first time working on these!
