I too am pondering what to service.
mine is a 2000 with 69K <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> You & i must do the same type driving.DAILY!
So far i have had the front end realigned,lubed,Poly Trans mount, gear oil & trans fluid/filter,fuel filter,that is about it for service.
Need to change the plugs/wires soon.
I don't know "Officer"! What have i missed.
Oh yeah, looking to replace factory shocks with Bilt's! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> How bout you??
BTW, i have done all of this service myself. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> (minus)front end alignment.

Im not lookin to replace the shocks, but am lookin to lower it with G2 springs as soon as they get some more.

I figure you need to service the cam, heads,intake, headers and underdrive pulley

A modified underdrive pully?? Is that just a smaller pulley than stock?? which would in turn make more power??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

A smaller pulley reduces the speed of your PS, altenator, etc and reduces some of the the parasitic drag. It's a good mod

Your OEM shocks are probably on their last leg at 60,000 miles. A new set of lowering springs may kill them off quickly. Handling could be sloppy. My 2cents only...

how would i know if my shocks are going out? Be advised my vehicle is a daily driver, and i've had it for 2 yrs now. My car is still stiff, and handles great i guess...i havent been in a modified suspension Z28....What are the replacement for shocks? Besides Bilsteins..i dont feel like spendin $400 on shocks...are there any other options shock wise?

And bilstiens are the way to go for non adjustable shocks, if you are chaging the springs, CHANGE THE SHOCKS because it's the same pain staking process for both. I just oredered my bilstiens, and trust me, my stockers are dead after 72K <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
