Replacement cartridges are cheaper that the whole strut assembly. You can replace the cartridge only if you have servicable struts......that is a strut with a large nut holding the cartridge in place. Only problem is....it is very difficult to remove the nut. You will need a very large bench vise and a large pipe wrench, and probaly a long pipe to provide additional leverge for the pipe wrench. I was able to find a large vise designed for clampping pipe that held the strut in place. Not an easy task. If you don't have a large vise/pipe vise, I suggest buying the whole cartridge. Be careful when compressing the spring....it can be very dangerous.
