Can anybody help me out with my question above?

Note: This is a pretty good page to link to if you are planning on working on suspension soon.

Replace the upper front mounts. Cattman has the Nissan mounts available.

Does anybody know if the orange seals (spacers and seals) should be purchased if installing new shocks/struts. I don't know what they are. Link below

Link did not work for me.

Anyway, I did NOT replace those orange seals when I did my suspension install. I only replaced the struts themselves, the springs, the dustboots (see 4th gen FAQs for part numbers), and the strut bearings (what a pain in the @$$- and expensive).

No noise from the suspension itself, much improved handling and ride. 15K and going strong.
