    Looked at the price to rebuild them, outrageous.

    Is there a kit and guide I can follow to DIY this?

    I am going to buy some 5125 in the mean time so I can take my time rebuilding them.

    Thanks for any help.

    I looked them up, it's almost as expensive to have them rebuild as it is to buy new ones.

    If they sale a rebuild kit I will probably do that.

    Thanks

    Ok thanks everyone, I think I’m going to go with a cheap replacement for now and just drive it without the strut until they get here. Not sure if I can afford the 5160s again.
