My 86 240 has its original struts. I intend to replace the cartridge with Boge Pro Gas (looking for a relatively soft ride - like original). Will I likely need any of the following:
1) strut bump stop
2) bellows
3) retaining ring (mounts near bottom)
4) spacer (mounts near bottom).

Should I just replace the upper mount (bearing) as a matter of course, or should I test the existing one?
