    It's been about 12 years since I did a strut cartridge replacement (on my
    beloved and lost 744T). Now my '95 940 (nonturbo) is making some
    clunking noises from the struts when I turn. So, I'm going
    to change out the cartridges and replace any other worn parts. I plan on
    replacing the strut mounting (Bilstien kit), the cartridges and the
    "boot & bump stop".

    Question, are there any other parts in there I can't remember?
    Once I get the struts apart I don't want any surprises or delays
    for the want of some inexpensive part.
    I have the Haynes manual on order but estimated delivery is two weeks.
    I wanted to get the parts ordered and on their way.

    Also, any opinions on brand, quality, ride of struts would be great too.
    Last ones I got were KYBs. I liked them but I'm open to other suggestions.

    If anyone knows of an exploded view on the web it would be great.

    Thanks
