Well, can't just do them in singles in reality, so I end up replacing two struts, two strut mounts, 4 tires (since I have staggered wheels), had a 100 point inspection done, found out the shop t hat did my breaks fucked up some sensors, my rear struts are at end of life. Out 3200 on the car repairs so far, 300 for the phone screen, $750 left to go to get the rear struts done. Might need to end up replacing a sensor control board for my TPMS sensors and I need a new high mount stop lamp since the pothole dislodged the lense from the sudden shock.
Good thing the car is paid off and I can eat the cost, but damn, way too much in one go.
But at least the car drives like new now. Mostly.
