    I got the H&R springs and KYB AGX adjustible shocks and love them. but it seems 75% of the people here swear by Eibach springs and Bilsteins shocks.

      yup.. i'm one of those 75%.. gotta say i do appreciate how they tightened up my suspension and handling. The prokit eibachs arent overly stiff either so the ride isnt too harsh (for an f-body at least).. cant say i've track tested them but i do enjoy how they helped on the streets... I got the shocks and springs from strano parts for less than $600... good luck on the install...

        What, the install is a major pain the the a s s?

        So would the KYB adj. shocks/struts work well with the eibach or hotchkis? or should i go with the bilstiens SLPs

          honestly, im not sure bout the kyb's... i've heard good things but never used them. I have the bilstein HD's... they work well..

          as far as the install, i didnt have too much trouble but i had to hacksaw the one front shock shaft in half to get the uppper mount off. make sure you have the strut spring compressor secure if you do this!!!!!! i can not stress that enough. if they slip, that spring is flying and could be very dangerous. besides that, the only other hassle i had was finding the upper rear mounts (behind the rear seats.. you must roll the trunk carpet forward to get to it) wasnt that bad of a job in all honesty. you might need an alignment too afterwards so budget accordingly.. good luck man, hope it goes good for ya...
