My rear strut mounts are bad. I just bought a full coilover kit and it comes w/ the upper ball mounts. Heres the dumb question.....you ready? Do i need to replace the strut mounts before i install them or will i not be using them? I needed to replace the strut mounts to pass inspection hence the reason for asking. Any response is appreciated thanks.

^ If there are no issues no problems, smooth install will take you 1-2 hrs. You could actually do one side if jack prepped and tire removed about 5 min. Of course if you have the resources and tools, you can jack up the car on all four and have 1 or 3 friends help you, that would make the whole thing less than 30 minutes easy. assuming your friends know what theyre doing. of course, tuning the height and damper are totally seperate from the install time. on the fronts make sure you don;t overextend cvboots.
