I'm about to install Eibachs and Illuminas, and I was wondering if there is any cheap and simple to replace things once I'm down there? Any sort of bushings, etc?

My car has 180,000km (112k Miles) and the only suspension parts I had replaced have been the stabilizer bar links. I'm not hearing any noises or anything, but if there is parts that are likely to go and not too expensive, or are recommended to be replaced when replacing springs/shocks, then I might as well look into getting them.

I am shying away from getting new strut mounts .... unless you guys really recommend I do.

Is it highly recommended that I replace the strut bearings?

Thanks

I think I would recommend replacing the strut mounts, at least in the front. I installed new struts on my last car and springs/struts on the Max and both times I get the annoying "spring creak/groan" when the spring compresses and rebounds. Beyond that, I'd replace the dust boots/bumpstops... You can get them at Advance Auto Parts for around $15/each.
