Do you type by throwing chopsticks at a keyboard that is spinning or something?

Both tension rods are either broke, or the rubber bushings wore out.

Tension rods both looked good, must be the bushings. Could there be any damage from those going out or will replacing them do the trick?

If you put the wrong strut on the wrong side you can set the wheels back..idk if they do go on backwards, but im pretty sure ive seen someone do it before.
And by backwards I mean the wrong side of the car.- VG30DET (HE341) 86 300ZX - 1982 280ZX Turbo - Headered NA 1986 300ZX 2+2 - 2000 Xterra - -

Man you guys are good! went out and checked and they are towards the rear of the car. I have time to fix that tomorrow, so just the struts are side specific or the control arms too?
Thanks guys!

Haha you'll have to excuse my lack of knowledge in the suspension area lmao. Only time I've worked with struts is I helped a buddy swap his front right strut as it had broken in half.
Time to do some hands on learning tomorrow.
