well it does make a clanking noise when Im going slow and hit some bumps but,I priced the replacement struts and strut mounts and it came close to $600,does this sound right?I just bought some falken ziex($460 installed),and I took the car to a local place and asked them to do an alignment and about 3 hours later they said that all four struts and strut mounts were bad,and he said he wouldn't aline the front end because I would have to end up doing it again when I get new struts.Now I don't have the money now for struts,And don't want my tires to were uneven from not being allined,now what would you all suggest,Any thoughts would help......

tell him to just go align it anyway, its what you are paying him for! No matter whether or not you are buying struts now, or in a week, you should be getting what you pay for, which is a 4 weel alignment.

yeah.Well the car stays straight on the road and the steering wheel is straight when the the front wheels are.But that doesnt nesisarily mean the camber/caster,toe in/and toe out,are right does it?

go to ntb..as much as i hate them they have a time alignment plan. so get them aligned now and if you buy the one year plan. in a year when you have money for struts and shocks the alignemnt is free.



My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.
