2002 Q45 Sport_STRUT REPLACEMENT!

[longlivetitus]

Ladies & gents,I am going to replace my front struts on my '02 Q45 Sport and had a question. The question follows:

I will be purchasing the front STRUTS but how about all the other components that hold it together? What else will I need to purchase to save time and money?

Thanks a bunch!Longlivetitus

After 8 years everything made of rubber or rubber isolated is not like brand new. Restoration can costs multiple thousands just for parts.

Normally the front shocks wear before the fronts but are replaced as a group of 4 to restore fore aft balance.

A member named ahmed_wasim recently sold his '02 Q45 and indicated that he replaced the following suspension parts on his Q45 before selling it. This may be of some benefit to you.

I just copied and pasted the information below from the FS Ad he placed here.

Below is the list of parts that were changed.
