replace suspension (front)

[mugsie]

We've been trying the enjoy the bumpy ride for awhile now...
we had our 92 delica up the other day and the front left (lower? i think) suspension is about toast. with the right side not too far behind.
i was told by our local mechanic, who has a bit of experience with delicas, that it wouldn't 'hurt' to continue to drive it. but we'll have to put in soon enough anyway

does anyone have experience with replacing suspension?
to have it for us, on SS island we were roughly quoted at $200-300 in parts and about the same in labour.

another add'l peice of info: we were told that the front shocks were replaced prior to our buying the van a few months ago.

any info much appreciated

Define "toast", please.

are you talking about just the shocks, or Ball joints, Bushings, mounts....
