Default shocks

well i got my car back next week and the problems with it are...
1. rear diff cover leaking
2. rear shocks leaking

i dont care bout the diff cover i can change that no problem and the same with the rear shocks...but! i want to get strange shocks but i cant seem to find the quad shocks do they make them? if not are KYB AGX as good as strange?

one other question...after my boy put the fuel pump in for me i can still hear a humming from the back of the car when i drive...its not loud like it was before but i still know its there...is this normal for an aftermarket pump?

fuel pumps are loud, thats how you know they are working

get aftermarket control arms, lose the quad shocks, and get bat tires. all set

most aftermarket fuel pumps are loud. and +1 to nseoi's comment, get aftermarket control arms, ditch the quads. i did and dont regret it. and strange is second to none, go strange all the way! i have them too.
