I’d say with timely oil changes these things last indefinitely.
Probably why there are keys to compensate for stretch.
Check your stretch.
And perhaps change out the tensioner and rail.

I think subframe mounts are easier with the subframe still attached.
Bushings require removal and a press tool.

its been a while, but I recall that there should be a rubber diaphragm in the center of the valve.


Otherwise, the pump would probably have a hard time building up vacuum.

this happened to me once in '96.
tranny needed a rebuild shortly after.
I'd say checking the fluid would be a good start. And maybe even change fluid/filter if the last service is unknown.

ride height seems fine.
my concern is age of the springs which are definitely original.
so more maintenance than performance issue.

Yes, I will be doing the work. And I have the spring compressor.
Just wanted to make sure it’s not money wasted to replace the springs and shims.

The sedan and coupe mirrors seem to be totally different.
What part # is compatible? and what kind of modification if any needs to be done.
