Suspension & Whatnot.

Hellooo again.

Everytime I hit a bump my car sounds like my first car did. My first car was a 1989 accord. What do you guys recommend for suspension? Would I be better off buying aftermarket parts or just going ahead and replacing the oem ones?

If you guys have any overall suspension suggestions that won't cost me tons of money feel free to throw those in too.

Thanks!

what do you mean it sounds like your old car did. you mean does it sound like your shocks are dead? is it coming from the back? explain a bit more.

if its that sound that comes from the back i believe theres a fix for that in the DIY section or the problems & fixes section. check those places out
