my 01 civic struts front popped...
now i need replacement... but I don't want to spend too much... I wanted to get someones old 02-05 struts... but I know that 03-05 don't fit... because of the 16mm and 14mm

are there any other alternatives???

go to autozone and get some replacements...they're not too expensive cuz its not a 2g eclipse...its so expensive for cheap shocks on my eclipse

Tokico HP's would work fine for a stock suspenion... would improve the overall performance of the car too... should be pretty cheep.

^^^ yup, its a good replacement. But be prepared to spend about 350 or a little more on all 4 shocks.

go back to the dealer and tell them that this is a recall part.

did you a letter from honda say yoou needed to bring the car back to have it replaced.

for some reason the front strut on a 01 civic was defected.....go ahead ask the dealer about it.

Its on a TSB, not a recall. Given that its now late 2005, they're not going to do any freebies on an 01. They'll say its normal wear and tear and you have no defense for that after 4 years.

This actually is my second set of fronts... 1st fronts... blew out after a few weeks when slid in snow and hit a curb... the subframe was bent a little but I was still able to get it back to specs... do you guys think its the subframe thats cuz the shocks to blow faster??? I have oem springs on... no lowering yet..
