Hello, my car pulls to the right past 30mi/hr and i can feel every little bump through the steering wheel. I went to get an allignment today, and the guys said that the cause of all that are worn strut mounts (i've had new tokico blues installed, but the strut mounts were re-used). SO, I have new struts, swaybar bushings/endlinks, and new LCAs/bushings, i had them check all of those as well as tie-rods. My left tire shows wear along the outer edge, the right is not as bad, but still shows some wear(new Bridgestone potenzas, btw). So looking around, i see the strut mounts with bearings included, but would that be enough to solve the problem?

How were your alignment numbers?

 

Front: Left Front: Right
Camber: 0.0 Camber: -0.1
Caster: 2.3 Caster: 2.6
Toe: 0.10 (B4 -0.13) Toe: 0.09 (B4 -0.24)
SAI: 14.5 SAI: 14.6

 

so.....any reccomendations ?

 

Strut mounts usually make noises when they go bad. Do you hear little noises when you go over bumps?

 

i hear like a little "swish" kinda noise when i go over bumps Otherwise my suspesion is silent.

DO NOT buy KYB strut mounts. Only get OEM. KYB ones die quickly.

Buy everything from there or call DAVEB

 

i got mine at the dealer for 37.50 a peice and autozone one's were the same price, so i would call your local dealer and see if you can pick them up for that price.

 

gotcha, thanks for the heads-up

 

i can't seem to find any other place that has the boots that go on top of the strut...and that rubber piece that goes in between the spring and the strut (sorry, don't know the right names)

 

Strut bellows or strut boot.

 

I thougt as much, thanks what about the rubber piece that goes in under the spring and the strut (insulator, i guess?)

 

Look in the stickies for suspension threads and part numbers, I am closing this for now. PM me if it doesnt fix the problem and you need it reopened.
