You're not yet a full fledged member of the DFI if IAB club yet, but keep
trying!

Why would anyone, excepting for hire wrenches, recommend replacing the upper
strut bearings when they are so easly cleaned and relubed?  Further, price
shouldn't be a factor in replacement or not, the Q is:  Is it broke or not?
