    Yes, it did say $32 online when I got mine too. However, when I got to the store it was the cheaper price I posted. And yes, they do have the rear mounts also.

    Just got a quote for the OEM mounts and nearly had a heart attack. Look's like I'm going with these bad boys. I understand they come with the bearing, but does anyone know if they include the spring seat as well? Thanks.

    Dang man i thought those mounts were alot more than that i have been putting mine off due to the price i have gotten around. The parts stores i called said like $75 for the mounts. I may have to go to an advanced auto parts. Is that the regular price for those at Advanced or were they running a special?

    Rock Auto offer a warranty? And if so, how do you get it honored? I'd pay the exra $7 if you have an Autozone nearby just for the lifetime warranty and ease of returning it if you should have to.

    well looks like rock auto does not warranty there parts, but they do carry the manufacturers warranty. so if somthing is wrong you have to contact rockauto and they will help you get in touch with the manufacturer. (should be alot of fun)

    can some one give me the part number for the rear strut mounts, monroe ones. thanks

    These are actually quite easy to intall. remove 5 bolts to the assemble out and one more on the assembly itself. I unfortunately did not have the right tools. What a PITA. I do have a question though. Is it normal for the front end to make a sound like rubber rubbing on metal while the springs settle? I couldn't get mine exactly lined up. After I put the 2 big bolts back in the bottom half of the assembly I had to rotate the whole thing by hand to get the top 3 bolts lined up. Normal or should I plan on getting new ones again soon?

    i have these, they are awesome especially since they have a lifetime replacement. When i did my struts i wasnt going to replace them but upon disassembly the old ones fell apart lol so i went down there to advance and they had them in stock!
