Default SUSPENSION

First off... Whats up everyone??? well guys ive had my 01 GT for 7 Years now. Its had loweringsprings onfor about 5 years of the 7 years. Now i think its in need for Some New SHOCKS & STRUTS. I dont know much about them but ive been looking at some TOKICOS, BILSTEIN & KONI. Any of you guys got any of them? If so Can you guys Help Me out with this project.Ive also noticed some websites sell the whole set like this one>>>> http://www.stangsuspension.com/store...?idproduct=600That set <<<< seems to be like the best all around setup but i dont drag race or auto cross.. or should i just buy SHOCKs & STRUTS separetly??? Any Help would be much appreciated... THANKS

1. shocks/struts are 1 unit
2. if you dont autox or drag race then tokico blue (i think they are 5 way adjustable?), bilstien non adjustable or D spec are great ones for their prices, 2 of them can be converted to coil overs as well.
3. if your just city driving maybe look into the bullitt or mach 1 kit... fairly cheap and slightly better then stock.
good luck

Damn I paid $250 for just one strut[:@], but worth it.

If you are just using it as a daily driver then just get stock replacements. There is no real reason to puy performance shocks/stuts for street use.
