Exclamation Struts...?
I am planning on lowering my X. I already have the Eibach Pro-Truck loweing springs. When I took it to the shop they said that I should also get new struts, since the current ones have never been replaced and have 72,000 miles on them. I found these on Ebay; http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-B...ayphotohosting
It says that it doesn't come with ball joints, so my question is...is this what I should be purchasing? Are the ball joints necessary? Sorry...don't know too much about this sort of thing. Thanks.

Alright well where's the best place to get struts then? When I search for them I get results for shocks.
