Be sure to check your front lower A-Arm bushings for cracks, separation, and deterioration -- if they are, replace those too and get an alignment. You can see them best when the shock is removed and the arm is in the down/limp position. Be sure to snap photos. This, as I discovered when I had mine replaced, can make the car much firmer up front.

The Konis come with a lifetime warranty as I understand it...do the Bilsteins come with any warranty? Thought I read somewhere that they did come with a warranty in reference to a different kind of car...

Agreed, I love the way my car handles.

This is the way forums work. If you don't like it, don't post.
