Koni Red vs Edelbrock IAS Shock absorbers?

[Great68]

Well, it's the new year so I've decided to buck up and actually spend some more money on my car

I was looking at the Edelbrock IAS for the longest time, and a few of you in this forum have had a good experience with them, they seem good for the price. I was actually going to order them today.

But... Someone mentioned to me that Koni makes a model of shock for our mustangs and was wondering who has had experience with them and how would you think they compare to the edelbrocks?

Thanks guys!

if your ride is lowered, order the one's for the lowered spring kit. way cheaper than the classic model number for mustang. for the edelbrocks that is. i will say that these are an AWESOME shock. ride is great, even with 235/45 17's, 620 coils.

I've had Konis' on all 4 corners in my road car for almost 6 years (+20,000 kms per year) and they still handle like the day I put them in. Had them in race Escorts and will have them in my 'Stang when it's finished.

i know you didn't make them a choice, but I just threw KYB Gas-A-Justs in and consider it one of the three best things i've done for my car yet.

I was considering KYB's but I've heard a few people say they didn't like them. Plus, everyone I know has KYB's, I want something a bit different

looking through the catalg, it looks as though the classic is painted grey for like $30 more??? other than that the numbers are the same. 33214 frt 34214 rear. lowered or not

I like the Edelbrocks. I lowered my Explorer and put Edelbrock IAS shocks on it. It handles alot better, a lot less body roll, and still has a decent ride. I'm planning on getting some more for my mustang when i get to the suspension.
