I lowered my car over Christmas. I have the H&R Sport Springs, but still have the stock shocks and struts. If I ever get the car back from the third tranny rebuild I am going to replace the shocks. I know everyone has an opinion on wich are best, but my question is this.... Is there a better shock for the decrease in travel? Does one manufacturer make a shock specifically for lowered cars, or is it just a recalibrated rate? The ride height was lowered about an inch and a half. Thanks for the help!

 

It sounds like bilstein and tokico and a popular choice around here.

 

Monroe Shocks/Struts. Cheap and Decent ride quality
Or the preferred
Fox Body Shocks/Struts. Cheap and decent ride quality

 

Depends on your plans with the car.

 

I would go with Tokico or Bilstein.

 

Try KYB, GR-2, I have them with pro-kit and cant complain especially for the price now about $250 shipped.
