Bilstein Struts ?
I ran out of money for car fixing last month and only was able to put in one (front passenger side). The car seems fine but I would like to wait before installing the secnd until next month. Is that an option or do I need to do that right away?

I replaced my shock absorbers with Bilsteins last month. Totally transformed the car. I recommend you do the other side as soon as possible. Bilsteins over here in the UK retail at £48 which in your currency is $65 to $70. Trawling these sites it is apparant that in the USA you appear to have to pay far more than we do here in the UK for MB spare parts.
I suppose with your super smooth freeways, worn shocks are easier to tolerate than here on our very twisty, bumpy, undermaintained roads where, with our national speed limit of 70 MPH any suspension fault is glaringly obvious.
Give up food/smoking/women/or whatever.......do the otherside as soon as you can!!!
