    I’m looking at possibly purchasing the struts, coil springs, and shocks from a 3rd gen off road. They’re take offs with about 10k miles on them.

    Can I reuse my original top strut mount? Or should I purchase replacements? I have about 214k on them.

    You could. But at 214k miles... grab some KYB top hats and bushings and to replace those old rotted out ones (sounds like the 3rd gen stuff isnt coming with top hats)
