Mazda Parts
Been getting a weird bounce from front right corner on the Mazda3.
Right front strut is wet. Wayne does not sell Mazda stuff. Anyone have a good source? |

I buy a lot of stuff from AutohouseAZ for non-Pelican parts.

Good opportunity to upgrade to Bilsteins?

Rather spend the cash on the 911 or 190.

25% less than I'd been finding anywhere else so added the rear shocks in as well. All 4 corners for the price of the fronts + $25 for 2-3 day shipping. I'm good.

I paid $100 (delivered) for front struts for my Mazda5 from an ebay seller. I sold it a week after the install but the quality was great plus they had a lifetime warranty.

I have bought a lot of factory stuff from Med Center Mazda. They are a dealer, but have the best prices and sell online.

Same ones I grabbed from ********. Was skeptical till I found a lot of positive reviews. Seems they are a white label from the same manufacturer as the pricier options. Got all 4 corners for $157 shipped. $41 per strut $23 per shock $30 shipping

Keep us updated on what you think after you've had them for a while. I only put a few miles on mine before selling. The old strut was leaking so bad it was leaving puddles in the driveway so I had to do something. I'm interested to hear how the Sensens age.
