59,000 miles, and i think the shocks are getting sloppy. I checked the codes, (no z51). The car is a daily driver, and it just seems to roll more than it should, it does have original shocks on it. I ran a search and not much i could find, and I am wondering between new stock AC delcos or the KYB Gas shocks from mid america. Your thoughts ?? :w
 
after you decide which shock you want to go with, check you local NAPA or PEP Boys, they will have the the same part a good bit cheaper.

Slim- just replaced my bilstein's(getting them rebuilt)with KYB's for my 91,and I really like them!!! Nice ride,not as "stiff" as I've heard. Got mine from Summit Racing for $27.50 each. Good choice for the money I feel.:)
 
If it's "roll" you're not liking, I'd be looking a stiffer bars & higher perf. tires also. Would not disagree with new shocks though. I like my QA1's. Easy to adjust front AND REAR to suit your taste.
 
KYB's here with no complaints, especially for the price !

I agree with Pilot. Just put a set on my 91 and for the price, they are an excellent choice.
 
Thanks Everyone

Ordered the KYB's. We'll see how they are in a week or so.:upthumbs :w
