I just bought the Eibach Pro Kit springs and am now looking for shocks and struts for my car before I start the installation. Does anyone have suggestions? I was looking at Tokico or Koni's but they are real expensive. Is it really worth the extra price or is there something cheaper with decent performance? Thanks for the help.

Go to Ebay and type in "mustang shocks"...you can find mucho good deals on all kinds of S/S....Tokico's/Mach1s/Bullits and even Bilstiens...I was searching myself last night...

If you don't want to spend a lot then definitely don't get Bilsteins. They are the best but they are also the most expensive. They have a lifetime warranty, but that won't do you a lot of good if you only plan to keep the car a few more years.

I believe KYB shocks and struts are cheaper than Tokico and Koni but I've heard mixed opinions on them. Personally, I'd shoot for some Tokicos. They really aren't that expensive if you look around. I got a set of very low mileage Bullitt (Tokico) shocks and struts for $100 shipped on the classifieds. If you shop around, you can find good deals on Bullitt or Mach 1 shocks and struts, and those are all made by Tokico.
