Advice needed regarding intstall of shocks/struts.
Advice needed regarding intstall of shocks/struts.
I just purchased Tockico Illumina shocks and before installing them I was wondering if I should replace any other parts at the same time. I've got a 1996 Maxima and am currently on H&R springs since 1999.
I've never replaced any of the 4 upper mounts and was wondering if I should get these replaced at the same time. In addition, I understand that there are two Strut bearings in the front and was thinking of replacing these also. Since I plan on keeping the car for several more years, this may be a good investment -- Especially considering I'm paying a pretty penny to have someone else install the shocks/struts. (I wouldn't dare try and do the install myself.).
I would appreciate suggestions and/or advice of anything else that I should have done at the same time. The objective of course is to try and save on the labour costs and just have everything done at once. Thanks in advance for the input.
