When replacing the struts, which parts are necessary to replace. Obviously the struts themselves and bearings in the front. I know I don't need new perches or springs, what about everything else?

 

check my thread.

Might as well replace endlinks and bushings while u down there.

 

Disassemble and inspect your strut assemblies.

Replace obviously worn out items. There is really no way anybody on here can accurately tell you what needs to be replaced without a visual inspection.

Typical ware items are Boots, Bearings and sometimes the Mounts.
