Rear strut mounts...

Replacing struts once again, still on OE struts mounts in the rear, worth the $50 to replace or not even worth it? Seems as if I never hear about them causing any issues.

Thanks

Unless those rear mounts are really worn out, there's no need to change them.

You won't know for sure until you pull them out. Going by what I had read, I ordered new front mounts only when I replaced all struts. Turns out the fronts were fine and the rears were worn.

I've done over 100 Maxima suspensions, and I've only seen one bad rear mount.

I would do them all as they may go at any time. ALso unless your are going with stockers, you probably want the same brand all around.
