car's almost paid off and I'm thinking of ordering bilsteins all the way around to celebrate. should this really wake up the ride quality or am I not really going to be able to tell? car has 113000 miles and all suspension is stock other than subframes

If your DuhCrappins have 113k miles on them, installing some Bilsteins will make a big difference. I was suprised by the improvement.

ow my god, i could not stand the stock shock at 20k miles. The back-end was all over the place since new. The bilsteins HD's bothered me after 50k on them. Good shocks, swaybars and a rod panhard bar all do wonders for this car.

Yeah, you should like the new ride w Strano Springs and Revalves (or Konis if you can swing it). Everyone seems to love Strano's springs...I know I do!
