Author Topic: shocks?? eighty8mclaren ¯ Member # 2751 posted                              I have an 88 convt. ASCMclaren Mustang. (GT with a mercedes SL hideaway convt. top) My shocks are original and dont work for s***! What kind of shocks should I get, my car is a daily driver. Not a racer, never to the track and really dont plan on it. So I dont think Im ever going to be ajusting anything.

If you can't afford those you can buy the non-adjustable Tokico's or maybe some KYB's..... -------------------- -SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT- Posts: 5132 | From: Bay Area, CA | Registered: Dec 2001  |  : wilit Mustang Messiah Member # 3367 posted                                 Damn I love those ASC McLaren's. One of the best looking Fox Bodies ever. Anyway, I agree with Black94. Bilsteins are great, but a little pricey for a non-adjustable shock/strut. Otherwise I'd get KYB's. I had those on my '66 and they're great. -------------------- "If a man hasn't found something worth dying for, he isn't fit to live." - Martin Luther King Jr. Posts: 4793 | From: 37.78514° North 122.40100° West | Registered: Oct 2003  |  : eighty8mclaren ¯ Member # 2751 posted                              thanks you guys!

I hear a million people say they love Billstein's, but I personally think theyre ok. Ive used them. I am running Koni's right now. Penske's are also pretty good. -------------------- 1967 Fastback.
