which y33 suspension components shall I replace ?

[Qproject]

OK guys I need some help here.

I have a 1997 y33

I already have new struts and springs so I'm all set there, but what about tension rods? bushings? if so how many bushings? strut mount ? am I missing any components ? My car has over 100,000 miles and I'm sure they have not been replaced.

and what about the rear suspension ? I take it that there is not much to replace in the back ?

2 tension rod bushings, all shock bump stop/covers, rear sway bar links, fronts and rear sway bar bushings, front strut bearings, and anything else that shows deterioration.

everyone seems to be replacing their tension rods for their y33.

is it necessary ? it's a metal piece and not a deteriorating rubber piece. Shall I still replace it ?

All you need to replace the silicone filled rubber bushing.

ah ok cool.

thanks.

what about the bearings? some other dude metioned "strut bearings" . What and were is the "strut bearing" ?

and what about the wheel bearing attached to spindle, should I replace that ?

[maxnix]

Not unless wheel bearing is bad.

The strut bearing is odd, it's like a washer almost. I think other than that, you need the exhaust bearing too. <- kidding

any other suggestions ?

I'm getting coilovers so I won't need the strut mounts (bearings) right ?
