courtesy of@phattyduck. "The front suspension uses (coil over) shocks, but they will often be (incorrectly) called struts.
For OEM-like ride, go OEM. They will last another 15-20 years.
For slightly more controlled ride, go with Bilstein 4600. Those seem to last ~10 years (they did for me, at least).
For a mild lift, Bilstein 5100's are popular (with new lift springs in the back)... From there, the choices get complicated.
If you are happy with your current ride height, just replace the shocks (and top bushings, but most shock sets come with those). New springs and other parts are only needed if you want to change the ride height."
