Strut/shock replacement, this is all I need?

Postby DainBramaged » Sun Dec 27, 2015 4:10 pm

Hey guys/gals, I have an '05 SE with 93k on it and I'm doing the struts/shocks on it. I've acquired a lot of strut knowledge here and am reasonably certain; however, I'm just making sure I'm correct.

I have KYB GR-2's for up front, Bilstein 4600s for the rear, and a set of boots for up front. Is there anything else that I'll need?

Thanks!!

Should be all you need. The mounts should be able to be re-used on the front struts. I remember the torque on the rear shock nuts was pretty tight...well over 100 ft/lbs. You may want to look up the spec.
