have 93 grand am, 4 cyl, badly in need of struts . How long a job is this,
both fronts need replaced. Also what should I expect to pay for just the
struts. Is there an online place I could check out for ordering. Got to get
back on road for gas mileage, truck killing me. Thanks

hi bob, i just had the rear struts replaced and it cost me a total of $200,
BUT it was done by a private mechanic, i called service stations and they
wanted $400 $700. ask around try to bring it to someone that does it on
the side. it takes a good 3-4 hours to fix. good luck

Napa sells Monroe "Quick Strut" modular assemblies... comes with the
coil spring already installed.
With no messing around removing and re-installing the springs (and no
special tools to do it) it should be a fairly easy job... plus you get new
springs! >;-}
It looks like yours are $194 for the front and you have regular shocks
in the rear:

I just helped a friend of mine replace the struts on his wife's car, and
the whole remove & re-install the springs on the struts circus took most of
the time; bolting the struts in was a snap. I'm going for the Quick Strut
next time!
