Front Strut Components

Recommended Posts

Hi All. 

I want to put new front struts in my 97 D'elegance this year but have a issue.

I have new struts, springs, bellows, bumpers, mounts, and bearings. But I cannot find the rubber at the base of the spring. I want to assemble the new struts so  I can just install them in the spring. Anyone have any experience here with this?

IIRC I need the upper spring seat and insulator. Believe I have the lowers

I may have asked before but am still stuck.

Thanks all

There is one for them?

I was not able to find them. It is not for magnaride either.

I did get Arnotts though.

typically I would go with the KYB quick struts or monroe if  kyb is not a option but I could not find either.

Hi all. I finally have success with this.

I hope that my struts are still good. Everything has just been sitting in boxes waiting for me to do the install.

I pulled the donor parts off at my local pick and pull. For the record I could not find these listed anywhere

A little surface rust but otherwise in excellent condition. I did not need the bellows but I grabbed them anyway

Nice, I am surprised the insulators are not available, I got them for my 96 about 10 years ago, it was a dealer part.  but, that was 10 years ago
