Just wondering if you guys could push me into the right direction. Im looking to buy h&r ss springs (just like caldwell ) and shocks/struts while staying under $500. So which set of shocks/struts would you guys buy? where is the cheapest place to get suspension parts?
-thanks

KYB shocks / struts $200ish
FMS C-Springs, $140
rear bushings for the control arms, $80

Now at the same time there are some kits for about $500 that include shocks/struts/springs and some of the FMS ones also come with sway bars (I think mustangsunlimted has a $500 kit for one place).

I bought my stuff out of summit so I paid more for the shocks/struts than going through ebay but not by too much for the convience and security...
