struts

Hello its me again my celica has done me wrong again haha j.k but really i killed the seals on my front struts so my ride quality well.... blows i was thinking about just getting the strut tube and trying my luck there but i was wondering if anyone has any input on that with how well the after markets do with the original gear. or should i stop being a cheap skate and just buy the assembly money is tight so im trying not to screw myself over. ive replaced these on other toyotas but the Celicas have such hard suspension as it is i fear that i might just cause a huge problem by not beefing up the other parts.

The front cartridges essentially just replace the non sealed piston inside the OEM unit with a sealed unit. They are fine to use.
