Default Shock Recomendation!!!!

I currently have Monroe - Matics on all 4 corners on my 72. The car feels like it could use a little more control.
I would appreciate recomendaions for rplacement shocks
thanks
Mark :cheers:

I just put KYB GR2's on all 4 corners of my 72. They were reasonably priced at $97.96 for all 4 delivered. I like the ride, not to harsh but firm and in control. Fred.
