Strut Recommendations?
I am planning to replace all 4 struts on my Son's 2000 EX. I prefer strut and spring assemblies and want to avoid messing with the springs. The car has 166k miles and the original factory struts. It rides pretty mushy. I have read a lot of reviews which state aftermarket struts work fine but it increased the ride height and their car now looks like a 4x4. Can anyone recommend good quality struts with normal ride height? Apparently the Honda OEM Front Left unit is available but not the Right.

Re: Strut Recommendations?
takes some time to settle springs.
couple weeks maybe.
have you tightened suspension with no load? Sometimes bushings get seized. Put tires on ramps, get under there and loosen/tighten suspension again.
if you assembled the shock/spring, check if the springs are seated correctly.
