Just got my 92 fox back on the road and after being garaged for six months or so the car rides horrible! It bounces like crazy now over little bumps! It is lowered and don't know if the springs were cut (lowered when I bought it) but it rode fine before I put her away for the winter. Shocks or struts?? Or both?? Thanks guys!!

unless one of your buddies played a joke on you and removed your shocks, i dont see how its possible for suspension pats to go bad from only a couple months of sitting to the point where your car is bouncing as you describe. Start by replacing your shocks and quads
