New Shocks/Springs, What Now?

So i just ordered some new shocks and springs and i am curious what other parts most likely should be replaced during the process.

I am looking at my VB catalog and from the diagram and from what i can see from my car, i think i might need new rubber spacers front and back.

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks ~Gavin

Well it would be a good time to change all the bushing if they haven't been replaced and maybe check your steering rods for any play in the bushing and perhaps change those too.

I would suggest you check you tower mounts carefully since you have to take them out to change your struts.
