Sometimes it's best to dance with the one that brung ya.

Advice and suggestions from someone who knows these cars, although free, is worth something.

I got some info that the the 4th gen bilsteins have been revalved and are no longer that great, but the 3rd gen rear shocks work great on 4th gens. So i guess i'm just gonna pick up a set of 3rd gen rears off thunderracing.com, thunder ships super fast to where i live and i'd like to get em swap out asap.

Cant post cause it's not a sponsor, but that price was for 4th gen rear shocks, which now i find out have been revalved and suck. Their price for the 3rd gen rears is not that great. The third gen rear are alot better i've been told, i'll see when mine come in.
