Replacing shocks/struts, anything else I should do?
Replacing shocks/struts, anything else I should do?
I'm putting new shocks and struts on my 2011 Sport sometime in the next month or so. 55,xxx miles. Rears are starting to leak so I figured I'd go Koni Orange all around while I'm at it.
This is my first time doing suspension work on the Fit. Are there any other suspension-related wear items that I should just go ahead and order while I'm getting parts?

Nope. But as long as the car is on jack stands might was well pull the drums to check brakes, and clean as needed. Lube caliper pins, brake flush, and the general bearing, ball joint, tie rod wiggles.
Also anticipate breaking the plastic clips that hold the plastic wiper cowl in place, and order them ahead of time. Same with the left and right cowl trim piece clips.
