I am planning of buying the Mach Tokiko Shocks and struts until i found this.

It would be a lot cheaper if I get this Gabriels than the Mach Tokikos.

What do u guys think?

Not to say they are not good, but no one uses gabriels.. Get bilsteins at least for the back. You can save some money by getting the Bullitt/Mach1 struts up front, mustangs need all the help they can get in back. Bilsteins have a lifetime warranty www.bimmerparts.com for a good price.

what springs are you using the dampers with?
then maybe we can help you in deciding what to buy

also, the mach1 and bullitt dampers can be had for 179 from www.fordpartsnetwork.com .. can't really complain about cost.

Keep in mind the rear shocks on the bullitts are stiffer slightly than the mach 1's.

Ok. Thanks for the input. I am really buying the mach1 tokiko shocks but found that site while looking for how- to installation.

By the way, i have Eibach pro kit and i've heard the mach tokiko would work good with it.

Thanks!
