VX/VT Front strut Bearings ?

[jordazbro93]

Hey im lowing my vx 2001
I lowerd the rear of my car on ultra low towing springs .

But i got a pair of superlows already on struts.

But i was playing around with them and pushed them down wrong and a few bearings fell out the top of the strut but not alot.

Wondering if i can still use them struts without having any problems being bumpy or any noises .

and the rubber in the stut is ripped in half is it got to replace it ?

It depends on how many ball bearings fell out, you might get away with one or two but I would be inclined to replace the whole bearing, they a relatively cheap.
While you are at it you might want to replace the rubber boot as well as the strut will wear out quicker with all the dirt and grit getting in there.

Theres plenty of cheap VR, VS, VT, VX, VY, VZ strut bearings on ebay, (all these models use the same strut bearings and strut tops). You can also get new strut tops and new strut bearings as a set pretty cheap too.
