Shock recommendations?
Hey everyone.....I have a 1987 convertible that rides like a rock. I replaced the stock shocks a few years ago with monroe sensatracks. If I remember the car rode a little better, but not much. I do not do any road racing a sharp cornering that would require a really stiff ride. I just want to have a smooth ride in the car that doesnt make me feel every bump in the road. Any recommedations?

I put KYB's Gas on a few months ago on my '96. I'm happy with them. The CD player use to skip when I had the worn out Blistiens on there. Now it doesn't so I guess it was an improvement.
It'll always ride like a vette though. It's supposed to!

GM Gas Shocks
I too own an 87 Convertible. A few years back I replaced the shocks with AC Delco gas shocks. They were priced around $30 each and have been excellent. I prefer to use stock replacements from AC Delco. My C4 runs excellent but I admit I drive it on public highways in an easy manner.

This type of thread (shocks) are just behind the Opti ones. The above answers are already posted (search button).
Bilsteins are maybe the number #1 choice for many of us. They are the cheapest but they are good!
