newbie question. How do you know when the struts/dampers die? is it as obvious as a flat tire? Is it ok to drive around with dead struts for a week until the new struts arrive?

If your struts are indeed "dead" as you put it, take it easy til you get the new struts on. You wouldn't want your tires bouncing up and down without any dampening, could be very bad if you hit a good bump.


What struts are you gettin?
