Tokico HP Struts/Shocks

[87ttopstang]

Anyone know if these are any good? I know Tokico has a good name, but anyone have experience with this particular model from them?

Need some new shocks and struts and looking for suggestions.

Another question.....I am about to change my spindles to 94 style. Do I still need 87-93 model struts and shocks or 94 model?

When I did my 5 lug conversion I also used the Bullitt Suspension Kit, it comes with Tokicos in it. Overall it lowered the car about 3/4" all the way around and it handles super, plus the ride is very good too.

Thanks, I already have the car lowered, just need a new set of struts and shocks. But you say the ride quality is good?

The ride quality is better than it was stock, but remember that the shocks and struts in the Bullitt kit are designed for the springs. If your springs are close to the Bullitts spring rates, you can just purchase the Bullitt Struts and Shocks.

I have the Tokico HP Springs and Struts/Shocks. I have had them on for about a year now and I am very happy. Search eBay, I found a licensed seller with them for $100+ less than anywhere else. Ride is great, handling greatly improved.

Get some polyurethane spring isolators from Maximum Motorsports for when you do the install and you won't be disappointed. Also, get Steeda (or other) caster camber plates for up front to allow for proper alignment jobs once you have lowered.
