Another question for the good folks of BITOG:
I have a friend who owns this vehicle and is on a limited budget. I have the mechanical ability to do the job but am torn on part brands. I could go with ACDELCO but the only issue there is that everyone only sells the strut, so I would have to transfer the spring, etc to the new one. I can do it, but would prefer an all in one. The cost of these is 90/each.
Are there any other brands of struts for this application that would be considered good quality or should I just make the ACDelcos work? The aftermarket options are reasonably priced but I don't want her to have crummy parts either. So far options i've seen are Monroe, Gabriel, TRQ, and 1A Auto. Thanks for any input
