Default Few things need replacement, which is the CHEAPEST route

My shocks need replacement my mom was driving behind me the other day and saw that my car was on an angle. Im lookin on ebay and seeing these gabriel gas shocks for like 40 bucks? Would this be a good replacement? How hard are these to install?


Radiator needs replacement- Does a radiator really make that big of a difference. Im lookin on ebay at the oem one for 69 bucks. Good deal? Is this plug and play install?

My water temp gauge on my cluster is broken. Do i have to replace the whole cluster or what else is there to do?

I need that fuel sender thingy cuz my gas gauge works when it wants to where can i buy one of these at ive been lookin everyone for one. What can i expect to pay for installation?

with the temp gauge you probably do need a new sending unit to fix it
