Hi

My 2000 windstar has 123,000 km on it right now. Most of that is A to B stuff (wife's van) not a ton of highway. It has the original struts, springs. The only front suspension work I've need to do is sway bar bushings which I've done twice. I'm learning that the struts likely would last a max of 80 - 90 thousand so I know I'm due to replace them. My question is, would it be worthwile replacing the whole strut, spring assembly with one of the "quick struts" on either side or is is likely that the springs are ok and I could save some money and just replace the struts? I understand that the quick struts are quicker and safer to install, both aspects I like. Costlier, I don't like but will pay if needed, suggested.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
