Yep sounds like a Ford

 

sounds like a fox body, but still not as bad as an F body!
get new shocks and struts and front end alignment

 

yeah shocks struts and a bushing kit. i found most of mine to be very oval no longer round. and im pretty sure my car has the original 20 yr old shocks on it. its a terrible ride. i feel your pain.

there is a kit from summit with springs, shocks/struts(10 way adjustable), caster camber plates, and some bushings/hardware for about 650$ i believe.

 

yeah thats a pretty nice kit...but i think that lowers it doesnt it? if so and you dont like the ride now you definately dont want to lower it

 

Instead of starting another thread about the same thing, I figured I would ask this in my original thread.

My car is going to see mostly street duty, but everyonce in awhile I plan on throwing on a set of D/Rs and hitting the drag strip. So I was wondering if this KYB GR-2 shock/strut package would be ok or would I be better off with something else?

dude your car is almost 20 years old what do you expect.....

 

buy a lincoln

 

Hey now its only 15! Like I meant in the original post, I am not expecting the damn thing to ride like a cadillac or anything. I was just seeing if these(KYB GR-2) were decent shocks/struts for my application because mine need replaced!

 

cmon now kids we all feel his pain....poor baby needs to take off his pretty pink panties i think.....just kiddin man

 

think about it everything is 15 years old....buy new everything if you want it to ride smooth.....also if you do it right your 300 HP (or what ever you have) will make it to the ground better

 

+2 i go on this rant a lot but i hate to see guys who have a super motor and a sweet trans and a great rearend but have the stock suspension and brakes and they wonder why theyre getting high quarter times....no freakin crap...not saying thats what you did man...i guess i just gotta get off my soapbox

 

even small things like subframe connectors make a big difference...my friend does like mustang because there dammit im having a brain fart....something about the frame....dammit im typing and thinking at the same time. uni-body!!!!

 

That's the one advantage building a new car. EVERYTHING'S NEW! Older cars, just replace evrything. I don't know how many times people ask me stuff about my mods and upgrades. Any time I work on the car, I do more than one thing at a time. For instance, when I did the new tranny, I also got new motor mounts, new tranny mount, new crossmember, new tri-ax shifter, new MM stru brace, and new McLeod 800 series clutch. The car was down for a couple days, but if it was a new car, the only thing that it would need is a stiffer clutch and a shifter...

 

Although my car still makes me feel sick at times (I have my shocks adjusted for close to maximum stiffness). I have 8 way adjustable shocks and it is lowered and 1 - 1/2" all around and I have MM caster camber plates and honestly I could take some of the stiffness out and make it feel like an luxury car (If I replaced the two front seats of course they aren't old or anything but I feel like I sink into them all the time)

 

Well thanks for the help. I have already ordered upper/lower torque box reinforcements and MM XL subframe connectors. I guess ill try the KYB GR-2 shocks/struts and some new control arm bushings. I guess its a start.

 

If you stop driving over bumps, your car will ride verry smooth.
