I have a 2015 mdx advance. 200k miles on it. Just picked it up from the auction. Needs some work not bad. Super clean car. Very little rust under side. Inside like new.

So I have started replacing parts this week. Did the front end.

Used 50k 2020 mdx struts with springs and mounts.
New lower control arm
New calipers,
New rotors and pads from bosch
New end links trw
New wheel bearings
All front
New tires on the way 255/55r19 cross climate 2
In the next week I need to get the rear done.
I have the 50k 2020 mdx strut, spring, mount.
New brake rotors and pads bosch
New brake calipers
Is there any comon parts I should fix in the rear when i take it apart? Any of the links, control arms?

Hey @ssmokeyy, that's a serious overhaul you're doing on the front end! Since you're tackling the rear next, have you noticed any specific noises or handling issues that might point to a certain bushing or link being worn out? Adding a bit more detail on how it currently drives might help others suggest the most common failure points to look for.

Front is finished. And the new tires have been installed cross climate 2 in 255/55r19. Cars drives alot better. Im replacing the 200k mile rear struts with factory 2020 60k mile oem struts. Really no noises from suspension. I do have a very hard to hear noise that sounds like a wheel bearing or rear diff. Please not the dif. I got new fluid from Honda today to chnage the fluid. Im still new to the mdx world. Always wanted one. It was time to replace the pilot. 303k miles still runs great. Super clean.
