How much damage will this really do?



The struts are the only thing that will get damaged when driving on bad
struts.  As long as you are careful over rough roads, you shouldn't any
damage to any other component but I would be very careful because if they
truely are blown then you chouls resemble a bouncy 70's Cadillac and that
equates to a control issue.  I seen a GOB of cars run on blown or heavily
worn struts and it doesn't cause any problems other than control issues.
HTH!!
