Default Looking to buy Shocks

Like the title states, I'm in the market to buy some AFTERMARKET shocks. I'm mostly interested in Koni yellow's, but QA1's or other brands will suffice. Prefer local deals, within an hour driving distance. But if price is good, include the price shipped to 19380.

Let me see what ya got!!

Thanks!

I know you prefer konis but Strano is selling bilstiens for 400+ 50ish for shipping. He lives in PA so you might even be able to pick them up! Just an option for new shocks.

FYI Qa1's will feel weird @ Highway speeds, these being single adjustibles. The *** end tends to float and it takes some time getting used to but good for racing...

I heard they are great for a drag setup, I just can't decide whether I want to bite the bullet and buy a set of shocks/springs and install them before a 500 mile road trip or after... lol
