Default Shocks/Sways?

Has anyone upgraded your shocks and sways? If so did you go with the 04 Shocks and Sways or Bilstien shocks and Hotschics sways?

:iagree: Definitely depends on what you're wanting to do, IMO the T1's are the only way to go as far as swaybars; I've used the bilstiens and the Edelbrocks and they are both definite upgrades with my preference being the Edelbrocks; all these components do make the ride stiffer but if you're not looking to make your ride handle like its on rails I would just leave it stock. :cheers:

I upgraded the shocks to 04's and installed the Hotchkis sways, end links and poly bushings, Night and day difference! :smash:
