Oh aight, so the actual strut things in the front are probably ok?
all the "strut thing" is, is a housing for the shock to sit in..no biggie man, they'll be fine.. >wink.gif>

Well we got everything on today, but, I was driving up a driveway and the smaller axle broke in half. We went and got another one for free because we thought that the one that broke was a defect, we put it in, and it broke in half too, so my car to be towed to tires plus so they can find out whats wrong. Ill update tomorrow when I go pick it up
thats sucks. hope they find the problem.

They might already know what the problem is. haha I guess I shouldve said this before but here is the possible problem:

we had to take the axle(s) to a shop so they could take something off the old axle and press it onto the new one (they said something about a peice that bolts to the frame) and in the process of doing that they couldve pulled the cv joint or whatever out of place, which is the gears or whatever that connect the axles. so when i tried to drive the car those gears that were already disconnected just got tossed around and tore up everything. if they determine that that is the problem, than i am gonna have the shop that did that pay for it.
