Your original struts and shocks should still be good for a couple years at least. There's no question you would save labor if you installed struts and shocks at the same time (the spring install requires that the struts be essentially removed, anyway). If you just want the added handling and look the springs alone will give, no problem, go that way. If you are serious about improving handling and 1/4 mile speeds, and have the money, new adjustable struts and shocks can make a big difference. If you want rail handling and you've not already made the spring buy, check out kits that include the springs, struts, sway bars and shocks (
www.maximummotorsports.com and
www.steeda.com, etc.). The labor savings over doing the installs seperately are immense.
