so far my alignment guy has had no problems getting my camber and all alignment within range/specs. the tires I have now are at 40k and close to end of life and have worn very evenly. visually, my car (Sedan) still appears level or maybe slightly lower in the front. but I will measure the rear ride height this week (with trunk unloaded) to see where I am.
so you are thinking my ride height is likely already off? tired springs then? I was referring to matching up shocks so that my ride height isnt changed but I guess that's really up to the springs, not the shocks.
thanks for the help and I have read through your site before. very nice.
should I order the front bearing/mount kit though when I do the fronts? 160k original struts!
I knew the stop bumper should be OK to reuse. wasn't sure about those rubber bushings. sounds like for the rear shocks, maybe consider springs, and a new lower shock bolt maybe. Monroes are getting lots of votes and I like the price at local Advance they are $37 each.
