Thanks to the help of this site (Virgin1 ) I was able to find and purchase new front struts for my car. The question I have is, I was going to replace the strut and strut mount on each side. Is there anything else that I am missing? Not to be too much of a bother, but is there a link on this side with the removal/change process.

BTW, I ordered KYB shocks, and new strut mounts from some Mazda wholesaler out of Tulsa. Maybe now I can get this thing to quit eating up tires. I guess if anybody has recommended alignment settings that would be great. The type of tire wear I'm seeing can be mostly attributed to bad alignment, but the shop says it's in spec.........Thanks for the help. The insight in this forum is priceless.

 

You"re making me BLUSH (<<< I"m being silly,)but are quite welcome, Marty.

As I recall, all I did was search the suppliers I have saved to favorites, then do a Google for additional sellers.

 

Finished replacing the struts on my 3. It was a pretty easy job. Took a total of about 3hrs. If anybody needs to do this in the future........I am now a trained professional.
