just moved to ma, and the roads are killing my car
well i just moved up to boston and thats one of the reasons i havent been on to much lately that and my dad forgot to pay the internet bill before i left home. anyway the roads around here are killing my car i bottom out everywhere would it be worth just throwing on a set of monro shocks and struts in for now? im working at a monro shop just like and sts or what ever and ill be able to get them real cheap if not free

I have monroes on my car, I used to work at a monroe muffler and brake. I stocked up on them for free when I quit. They are way to soft, I bottom out pretty easy with them.

hahaha welcome to my world
where abouts in boston are you?
best thing i can recommend to you is dont drive the stang. seriously, your car is going to fall apart.
im saving right now for a winter beater.
just wait till the snow falls. you think its bad now..
if you HAVE to drive it, u need to upgrade the suspension. springs, shocks, struts, bushings, etc..
i have my old springs if u want them.

You should drive in my neighborhood, worst roads ever, has cracked my windshield, both plastic pieces that run along my t-tops, (can't seem to buy them any where)loosened ever bolt on the car and it beats the **** out of me when I drive thru there, I can't wait to move out and I can't wait until I get some better springs and suspension, other than that I love my car, and there is no way I could stop driving her because of crappy roads.
