how long does shocks last (tokico, konis, kyb)? let's say it's lowered about 2 inches...? approximately how long can you use it for? how bout stock shocks on prokits, h&r, etc? thanks!

When I got my prokit put on, I did not upgrade my shocks, so I running the prokit on stock shocks. They lasted about 1-2 months and they started going bad. Get shocks and springs at the same time if you can, so you don't end up making double the work when the stock shocks do go bad

i have had my stock shocks for 215,000 miles and no problems. I did put on a pro kit alittle while ago so i will probably need new shocks soon

How do you know when the stocks go bad?? Bumpy ride...bad cornering??

on my old ride, it felt really mushy.
and there was a very annoying scratching sound
whenever i would hit a speedbump or deep divot on
the road.
but you get used to the sound after a while.

I have stock shocks and theyre fine, but I'm getting the Eibach Pro Kit soon. it drops the car 1.3". i thought that i read that you dont need new shocks if you get that. will i need new shocks no matter how little i lower it? or will the stock shocks last with the eibach pro kit?

with the pro kit my shocks lasted about 3 months the they started leaking and getting mushy. I suggest getting shocks along with springs. You will love them. Its the way to do it right.

If you are going to do it..do it right.

Exactly, Same thing I was saying, do that shit right, otherwise you'll make more work for yourself in the long run.

koni yellows have a lifetime warrenty and are designed with dropped applications in mind.

man, i've had my pro-kits in for almost a year now, and they still ride fine. I was thinking more of aftermarket shocks like tokicos, and kybs and how long they last. 1-2 months is too fast.
