    i replaced my front struts and left control arm today

    control arm went fine although it kinda shocked me how it completely seperated with barely any effort at all
    im glad i replaced it when i did

    and then the struts i knew were total crap, but what i wasnt expecting was the fact that my passenger spring was actually broken in two lol

    and now i have my tokicos all around and one new stock spring and the ride feels so much better

    unfortunately though my suspension squeek mostly when its cold is still present which i had attributed to a strut/spring thing
    maybe the sway bar bushings?

    Yeah, my sway bar busings squeaked too and are known to be a likely culprit. A few squirts of wd-40 quieted mine right up
