Hi everyone, whilst I have the fuel tank out of the car, I was wondering if it is a good idea to replace the shock absorbers. If so , has anyone any recommendations as to which ones I should go for ??

KYB adjust-a-rides if you want a bit more of a firmer ride. $235 for the whole set of four from SA and they are a good damper. You could go the Spax/Gaz adjustables; however, you pay a premium for them and dollar for dollar you will get just the same out of the KYB's. Once you set them up you are giggling - the 48 point adjustments on the Spax ones would see me continuously fiddling with them!! :lol:

Hooroo
