The groans and squeaks that my bird has made going over speed bumps and potholes finally got so bad that I could no longer stand it. Took it in to an alignment shop and they replaced all 4 struts and mounting plates. Now I have a bird that rides sooooo much different. No more floating over dips on the highway. Should have done this long ago. For those that are wondering about cost it was $1300 at a private shop. Could have gotten away with just over $1000 if I didn’t do the new mounting plates.
