How can you tell if your struts are gone? What will the car feel like while you are driving if your struts are gone? I think mine may be! Thanks guys!

they would either be leaking or bottoming out on bumps. basically if you notice a significant worsening of ride quality. another test is to push down hard on the corner of the car above the strut you think is blown, if the strut is still good, the car will rebound back to its original position after one bounce or so...on the other hand, if the strut is bad, the car will bounce up and down several times before stopping still. mine bounce like 8 times, i just ordered my new struts

When I get up to speeds of 50 and above the car starts making like a bumping sound. You can feel and hear it. It sounds as if something in the suspension is loose and is rubbing up and down. In other words I can hear and feel a bump and someone told me it may be my struts. My suspension is stock as of now. What do you think?

Well if you go over a bump and you feel your car jilt, jiggle, jolt from after the bump, then you know your struts are going...
