Mate why did you got to pedders? they suck balls. They have no idea what they are talking about.

OK,

The strut is basically the shock absorber with the large spring in it. Do you know if you have stock shocks or aftermarket. If you have stock shocks, I have one that can be used to replace the one you have.

The stub axle is the bit the wheel bolts to. Also known as the hub.

The Lower arm is the lower suspension arm (triangular bit that attaches to the bottom of the hub. As to how long to replace, you are probably looking at about 30 minutes if you know what you are doing and have the right tools. Can be a bitch to get the hub off as the crown nut is usually bloody tight.

I have all the bits they have told you you need.
