I recently installed adjustable Tokico struts and shocks. It
made a night and day difference and my Mustang rides better than when it was new. I have one question. I did not replace the quad shocks, and I know these prevent wheel hop, but will replacing these make a difference? If they do make big difference can someone recommend a good brand?

Most people toss them when they get Lower Control Arms because there is no need for them. If you aren't getting LCAs any time soon though and your sitting on a rusted out stock pair of quadshocks it would benefit you to probably change them out. They're pretty inexpensive. I use the KYB quadshocks and I noticed a pretty big difference with them. I use to get a little wheel hop here and there but not anymore after I changed them out. I picked them up for a local autoparts store for like $40 or $60 but online they seem to be a bit more expensive.

I agree---5-ways are the best mod I've made---great street ride, change w/a screwdriver as needed.
I have Steeda UCAs & LCAs, but I just left the old quads on--they're not eatin' anything.
