So as the title says do i need to buy complete struts or does my stock set up work if i just buy sleeves? Im really not sure on this ive never changed out the suspension on my car so im wondering what i need to buy. thanks for the info.

pay someone to do it! hint hint!

the rears are complete struts. the fronts are cartridge replacements

I would 2nd this especially if your not a mechanic.

Nah its not hard to change it out but i wasnt sure what to order. it does look like the back is welded together. what bothers me is that vendors sell either complete struts or just sleeves. They should sell the front as sleeves and the back with the strut assembly.

hope you have a vice, pipe wrench and brake fluid..oh and 14mm, 17mm, and power tools!

you'll need a 12mm 14mm 19mm, 21mm socket and wrench set.

you'll need the front top assembly for the coil and the spacer from the rears...

don't make the mistake I did of installing the rears without that little top spacer....now I have to drill the nut off and replace the strut mount unless there is a way to old the cylinder to keep from spinning.....

maybe a 3-hour job if ya know what your doing...

I learned my lesson the hard way.

Front and rear are both complete struts. not cartridge replacements.
