I just bought a 2002 (3.4L) with 132,000. The ride seems pretty rough to me and I'm wondering what the life span of the struts and springs are on these vehicles.

If I replace the struts I will not be "dropping" or modifying in any way. Using this car for a highway commuter about 150 highway daily, so I'm looking for as close to stock or whatever gives a smooth ride with decent handling.

Should I also replace the springs? What is the telltale signs they are bad?

Thanks for the input!
