One just started squeaking today out of the blue. I was ticked!!! But the fronts make noise like crazy. Great weight transfer but like i said, i dd this car and the noise is starting to get on my nerves. So the tokico illuminas are still adjustable and are quieter???

yessir.

the car made no noise after i swapped them out. the illuminas were a bit pricey though compared to the non-adjustable blue shocks.

Plus the fox body stuff is cheaper anyways. lol so i found that steeda has a set of 4 for the 87-93 for 569. So that will probably be what i go with. Because im not going through this again. Do you think that the strange's are gonna be under warranty or something or not satisfactory??? And which brand did you like the best???

I doubt they'll warranty them and the stranges are the only ones that ive had that were adjustable,so i would have to go with them.The other ones I got were the cheapest of each brand because im a cheap ***.
