Thanks for the posts. Was very helpful!
Although it took me almost all day to change the front struts because those nuts on the top of the struts were almost impossible to get off!!
And then when I finally got the second nut off and lifted off the top bearings it came appart and I spent about an hour collecting up those little ball bearings then repacking the bearing with grease. Found them all which was lucky!
Also my sway bar link was bent on one side so i replaced that too.
The rear shocks were so easy in comparison to the front struts in my wagon.
My car is running back to good now. No more rattling in the front when going over bumps. And no more car shuddering when braking. Happy dayz.
