I've done the rears w/o removing the parcel shelf, caliper and driveshaft on a couple of gen I cars. The instructions look the same for both. I don't know why the have you do so much disassembly...

i agree with you when i did my 96 for the rear i didnt remove the drive shaft and the package shelf, its probably the same for the 98, am gonna do this over the weekend, i think dealers wants something like 1000 bucks give or take for front and rear struts replcement not counting on what they found out more, like the bumpers and rubber protection on the aoutside :cheers:

The last time I was putting my spare on I notcied the insulator looked really beat up. I'm going to change my struts soon, are the insulators worth replacing "while I'm in there?"

Yes..................They're cheap & easy to replace.

The springs are the biggest hassle. (To eliminate joint ache, take three aspirin BEFORE commencing work.........Yes, I'm being serious.)
