Shocks / Struts ???
I have 83K miles. I guess that it's time for new shocks & struts. I only drive it about twice a week. Would like to upgrade a little. I don't want to lower the car as I have to have blocks to get out of the garage now.
What would ya'll recommend? https://lmr.com/products/94-04-Musta...ts-Spring-Kits Should I do shocks & struts before alignment or does it matter? Big Ron :what: |
Re: Shocks / Struts ???
Im running bilstein hd all around. Do the dampers and then align.
|
Another Bilstein fan here. As was said, do the suspension work then get the alignment.

Bils here also. A little expensive but the ride and performance can't be beat.

Re: Shocks / Struts ???
Running the Koni Yellow adjustable. Set at the midpoint ride comfort is about stock but cornering drastically improved. In all honestly though if you are just street driving it the KYB will be a good combo. Definitely do the struts before the alignment or you'll be doing it twice.

Re: Shocks / Struts ???
Redid shocks/struts and springs last summer
Went Steeda sports and Tokiko Illuminas Very happy with both... Twice a week driver here too if weather allows |
Re: Shocks / Struts ???
Thanks for the input. I'll give the Bilsteins a shot when it warms up a little.
I'll let you know what I think about them. Big Ron :claus: |

I have since changed my car to strange coil-overs as my corner carver is going drag racing. :) I need to put them up for sale some day. |
Re: Shocks / Struts ???
bilsteins if you have the money. if not the Koni STr T's are a good value. if changing the front struts...definitely have it aligned after.

I got these https://lmr.com/item/BIL-24064187-K/...-quad-kit-8704 installed today. Rides 100% better. They ride is what I was looking for. You don't realize how bad the originals were when you don't drive it everyday. Rides better than new. Front end alignment was not far off either. Probably my third alignment.
Discount Tire rotated and rebalanced tires also. Next project is brake rotors and pads along with new brake lines. Then a "tune up" whatever that means now a days. |
