Looking for shocks/struts to improve ride quality

[sunil6784]

I found out that the creaking/popping noise is coming from my front right strut. So I'm gonna replace at least the fronts, if not the whole package. Since this is going into my convertible, which I plan to keep pretty close to stock, I'd like to get some that would improve the ride quality. Any suggestions? The car won't be lowered or anything...

I would look into koni, tokico, bilstein, kyb. The kyb's are the cheapest, the others can go well into the hundreds of dollars a piece.

Strange makes 10 way adjustables; shocks and struts for real cheap. My car is strictly for drag, but I have messed around with different settings and I can feel the difference in every setting. Between the softest setting and the tightest setting, my car can feel like a complete drag car and a oval track car. I was leery about the plastic knobs to adjust them with, but so far after a year and a half I havn't had a problem. Total for all 4 was under $400.

bilsteins if you can afford them.

i'd also look into getting some coil overs all around. That helped the ride quality of my car a lot.

Popping sounds from the front are usually from the ball joints. I have the Bullitt set up on my GT and the ride is better than stock and the handling is greatly improved.

I'd love to get bilstein's, but they are out of my price range. Is anyone running the KYB GR-2's ?

Alot of people on here like the Tokico HDs, for $261 on ebay stores, free shipping that is hard to beat. Bilstiens myself!!!

I just got a set of tokico HB's for 298 shipped. I later found them on EBAY for about 30$ less.
