Re: Which Shocks? (Chuck H.)

I just put the KYB's on one of my cars and like it (have only driven about 100-200 miles on them though. Also, where I live the only curves are the highway exit ramps, so I can't really test them :rolleyes:

Still have the original ones on mine. Am considering Bilsteins anyone using them - I would like to hear any of your impressions of them.

Re: Which Shocks? (gdh1)

I have Bilsteins on my Camaro Z28 and on my Explorer. I'm planning on installing them on my 82 vette.

I love'em....by the way...the Camaro shocks have over 85K miles on them and they still work perfectly.
