Shocks

[JU55A]

Hey guys i am in the market as it were for some shock absorbers. I was just wondering what brands are good and what to stay away from, i dont really wanna go to coil overs just yet. but my shockies are worn really badly and is giving chronic body roll.
Any suggestions would be awsome

king springs with, KYB's are always a good option....

yeah i have been told to do kyb, I have kings already. Any particular model of KYB. i have heard good things about those adjustable. i dont know what they are like bang for buck tho.

KYB AGX are the adjustable ones
KYB Excel G's are the non-adjustable ones

if budget is your biggest factor you could probably get some KONI's for cheaper than the Excel G's...

imho a decent strut/spring combo can perform as good as a set of coilovers, without the height (and possibly camber) adjustability.

that sounds awsome, where would one be able to purchace such items from?

Try Dave or Nikki at Cruisin Autospares at Nambour (5441 6411). But don't waste their time or Dave will strap you into the Fat Lady and take you for a ride.

Yes, they won't have the gear in stock but they will be able to get it in for you.
