Shocks...

Post by SammySJ99 »

I was wondering wat non-stock set ups you guys are running... ridding in my cabby is like being in a boat... I need new shocks... anyone have good ones there willing to spill about?

I am also running Boge Turbo's, mine is with SRS springs though. Much stiffer ride without lowering the car. I don't think you can go wrong with Boge. Koni and Bilstein also make fine products, harshness can come into play with those brands from what I understand and have heard.
