Rockauto is hard to beat for mail order but I also use ebay and amazon. Check for prices on combined strut/spring assy to avoid risk/time to disassemble/reassemble.
See DIY section for a download manual.
Not to familiar w/ Canadian parts stores. Mail order is way to go IMO.
good luck

Hey man thanks for the response .. I never have used ebay im a bit nervous i might get a bad part or something and to chase after it could mean lengthy process .. i really dont know .. however i called a few places here and for OEM monroe complete struts is $200 a side and upper control arms @ $60 a pop , thats crazy for me right now ..
I called this Auto sports place and the guy quoted me Perfomance Set called Tein Basics Coilover $900 ... this is a nightmare

That price includes shipping for amazon prime members. May be different for Canada. I have generally received parts in 2-3 days from amazon.
W/ coils in place this is an easy job.
good luck

Glad you got it.
If the fronts were shot, the rear can't be too far behind so you might start planning on those....oh wait, just re-read. If there is play in the upper arms, then they should be next on the list.....if you did the struts, doing the arms will be a walk in the park
