BKMs (Ben) car unfortunately had an engine mishap and it was put out to pasture. Not certain if it was parted out or sold complete. In any case it was last year. If he's still receiving post emails he may chime in......:mrgreen:

Thanks for the heads up Precopster. Does anyone else have any knowledge about the complete strut assemblies either FCP's version or Gabriel's?
I'd prefer to go Sachs all the time, but was looking for a cheaper alternative with a decent ride. I'm not into harshness, but want something that won't let me down either.
Thanks, Matt
