I was really surprised myself. I would think a mechanic would just put a new one on everytime since they aren't that expensive.

I have found out they don't carry a lot of parts in stock for the 95 Kia Sportage.

They sure have a lot of new vehicles out front so maybe they want to sell you one instead of the parts.

Hopefully I'll dig into it next weekend if we aren't busy.
I looked at it again and I can see the bolts have been taken out before so someone has changed them at least once.
Thanks again for all the good advice. Should make the job a lot easier.
