Need to replace the struts and springs, and whatever else in this assembly if it can't be reused. I'm used to just swapping out entire assemblies when needed. Since there appears to be no whole assembly for sell for neither the front or rear, what do I need to build a new one from the ground up? strut, coil spring, and what else? Guess i'll have to take them to a shop to get the springs put on but what other little components do I need minus tools?

Yea you pretty much have to buy the individual pieces.
Rockauto has all that stuff on clearance (not a sponsor lol)
Only thing I dont think you can still get off the shelf is the strut mount piece itself, the part with the 3 bolts that mount to the body.
Really just need the strut, spring, shock mount bushing kit, strut bellow, strut mount bushing (presses into control arm) though that last one is a pain to replace.

Prothane, Whiteline and Energy Suspension all had replacements for the LCA bushings made of poly. 150x better than stock and everyone on this forum will peg asystole on a monitor before those poly bushings fail.
