Default shocks??

What is the best shocks for the price?? thinkin about replacing my shocks on my car. it has alot of miles on it. i bought the car with 60,400 and now has 92,000. since i've had the car i havnt takin it down alot of ruff roads or anything. but just want to put a better set of shocks on it when i repalce my springs. the person that had it before me cut the springs to lower it and i just want to replace them with stock, or would aftermarket be better for racing? Just wondering what everyone else was running for shocks and springs.

Here is a simple break down - link

The stock springs are ok, its the shocks that are . When it comes to shocks, you definitely get what you pay for.

With that being said, I just installed HDs and am happy with them.

Sorry. Fixed now.

Talking to Sam is always a good idea! I know he is under a lot of stress right now though.
