I am looking into replacing the struts and shocks on my mustang but what about the axel dampner/wrap should I replace them at the same time? Do they wear?

well the answer is yes and no.

yes they can wear out but there is no reason to replace them IMO put that money towards a nicer set of LCA's and they are not even nessesary. they are there to prevent axle wrap but a nice set of LCA will prevent that and also provide much better axle location at the same time.

as hognutz said when you go to a better lower control arm you can just remove them.

After some research I may go with the kyb or billett shocks/struts and bbk LCA.
Does that sound like a good idea for a stock height daily driver with a buget to consider?
Is the LCA an easy replacement ?
