New Shocks..

[flareside_thunder]

Gonna get new shocks all around...was gonna get rear air shocks but people keep downin em so IDK, still up in the air.Gimme opinions on that.However, I either want to get the regular Monroe shocks or the Sensatracs. Any thoughts on those styles?Hoping for good handling and maybe the ride would be nice.Firmer though.Thanks.

I'm still trying to save up the money for a full set of Bilsteins. They're expensive but everyone says they're INCREDIBLE.

 

[flareside_thunder]

Yea.... but they're out of the question ATM.

 

[Skandocious]

Why's that? Cuz the of the price tag?

Sensatracs will give a good, but firm ride, just as you said. I live in an area with lots of well traveled dirt roads. The sensatracs handle washboards very well. I have them on my '78. For the price(about $45 each), they are an excellent shock.

I bought Bilsteins on my Po' Boy college boy budget. Save up and get the good ones rather than buying 2 sets.

You're running Bilsteins? How do you like 'em?

Damned dual-shock fronts means I have to buy SIX shocks

oooohhhh. I didn't think about that!

I've loved 'em. They recover from every spring almost instantly. They're great!
