Struts and strut mounts

Here's a quick question for you guys. I already bought 2 kyb struts for the front and am planning on buying 2 more for the rear. I found Gabriel front mounts and bearings on rockauto for 9.68 per side. They have one rear left mount for 8.64. My question is, will the different mounts and bearing work with the kyb struts? Also, does the same apply to the boots, can I order different brands of them too?

You should be fine being theyre the same part for the same application just a different brand. Are you re using your stock springs? Using the stock springs should be fine but if your wanting to change out the springs there's a set on ebay thats very reasonably priced and lower your ride 1.6" front and rear by Lo suspension $168.91 for all 4.

Thank you, but I live in the country and lowering is not really an option.

Btw, if anyone is looking for struts there is a guy that has them on ebay and he will accept $30 each for them. I believe he only has one set left, although they are listed separately.
