[urq] Front Struts

[Todd Phenneger]

Fully agree with Martin on this.
Or if need be, you can put Boge TG for the rear in the front if they are cheaper.  There is very little difference between them.  

One benefit to the Bilstien is you don't need to buy new Bump stops, dust boots, etc.  Price ends up being competitive when you consider the extra's.
