hehe.. Well, theres a difference in valving and dyno performance between gabriel and Bilstein HD's.

I'm matching them with H&R super race springs that I will be using in the rear to compliment my coilover in front. The springs have a progressive 260-300# rating. I'd like to see the gabriels keep up

I just installed MONROE SENSATRAC shocks and struts on my GT, and so far am very pleased. The factory shocks were almost done for and the car only has 8900 miles on it! The struts were still in good shape, but I opted to change those also.

I thought about going with the Sensatrac but shiot, no one f'n stocks them. Did you have to special order those?

Yes I did. My local auto parts store had them overnight though. They are a very good shock and strut.
