Well, lately the noise coming from the trunk has gotten fairly unbearable, and the ride exceptionally bouncy, especially in the cold. I'm thinking it's time for new struts, and I'd like to take care of it at work where we have a lift. I just want to confirm though that a spring compressor isn't needed in the back? I have an 95 AT200, and the writeup on installing coilovers mentioned that said compressor is unnecessary.
As a side note, could clunking noise also come from a lose tower? Maybe I should change out the mounts while I'm at it.... |

Alright. I'm not sure if everything's original or not, but I'm going to assume so. Luckily, I have access to air tools, so that should expedite things. Thanks for the info, hopefully I'll get the parts once the ol' tax check comes in!
