#28382, "KYB strut mounts for 1998 Talon. Need answer asap"

My rear strut decided to go. It's all oily and makes a banging slamming and rattling noise. I have posted a question a wile back about hissing nose coming form right rear of the car going over the bumps, apparently it was an early sign of shock going.

I will be buying AGX struts and as long as i am there I want to replace everything else. Specifically the strut mounts.

Questions:
#1 In the KYB catalog they don't list 98 talons. After search I have found this post where guy said that mounts are slightly different:

Am i still safe buying four of KYB mounts for 98 eclipse or 97 talon?

#2 i found this post also that says that even though in the kyb catalog there is one part number the mount will fit the front and the back.

http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=6&topic_id=21780&mode=full

Is this true. What about the studs am I going to have to remove them from the old mounts and put them in the new ones or do the new ones come with new studs?

#3 I have seen one time a post where some one said what other rubber parts should be changed while doing this job. I can not find it now, can some one give me a link or write down the parts that I should replace while swapping the shocks.

Thank you

So far I have ordered the stuff for 98 eclipse. It looks like questions #1,2,3 are all answered by what comes in the kyb strut mount set.
The following picture is what is there.



Thanks to all the people in the chat on dcember6 who helped me out. Star_turbo_talon, dsmmyth, darkone. If I forgot some one feel free to add your self to the list
