Canadian Cost is: $15.00 each for the rears and more like $130 for each at the fronts. Much more expensive! but I have the same noise and that is the problem garanteed. Drive slowly on gravel and you'll hear them big time. That was the mistake that I made. I changed over to Bilstein and H&R springs and I should have ordered the new mounts all around. Now I have to do the work again!! Pays to think ahead sometimes! So I learned!


The mounts cost like $15 each, so the labor's the killer. Unless you just replaced your shocks, since they come out anyway, why not do a little preventive maintenance & make your labor bill do double duty?
