Just last month I had to replace my front springs, struts, ball joints and strut mounts. Just happened to have 2 Mevotech strut mounts on the shelf from Sept 2023. Was driving on 55_ mph highway here and the RH mount failed completely, losing control of the steering in LH turns and making a loud knocking noise throughout the car. None of this would've been done but some a-hole stole my 87 GL, czny, from where it was parked on my property, went on a "joy ride" thru my and my north neighbor's property, then left it kinda parked in another spot on my property after breaking L strut spring, ruining front whl brgs, front cv boot, ball joints, rear Sach shocks, rear springs, rear cross member mounts and more. They had hit the front skid plate & tires hard enough to compress the unibody sheet metal back enough to push the engine & trans back, taking all end play out of the driveshaft! It still drives after repairs, but trans brgs are noisier now. Things will have to wait until after winter to R&R the engine & trans package to correct this. I have a spare d/r 5mt trans. Just when I thought things were driveable, a strut mount breaks! Found 2, 2 only, KYB mounts on RA so those are going on in next couple days so at least I have wheels for the winter. Mevotech strut order You'd think someone here in rural Montana would realize they could get shot for stealing a car, but then there's meth heads around here too. Smoked out meth heads whose moral compass came out of a box of Crackerjacks.
