Time to change the Shock!!

ok. my 99 TL with comptech spring&stock shock pretty much worn out(83000miles). It seems like the shock can't take any more rough roads. Plus the comptech spring is even LOWER than before!(oh and of course i have body kit too..)
What's my best solution?? I want my ride to be comfortable not rough. should i buy a set like coilover or All stock shock and spring for maximum comfort ride. Is there any other way than going back to all stock??????

If you can spend some $$, coilover might be good idea.

BTW you have 830000 on your car??? :wow: :wow:

Exclamation koni yellow gas adjustables!

my 99 with comptech sp/sways loves'em! adjustable for ride firmness. check em out for yourself, you'll get alot of opinions, you already have springs, coilovers at 80,000 miles? $$$$ stick with a good high performance shock, or replace your stock shocks. imho kman

If I was in your scenario I'd hunt down all the guys in the board that changed their stock shocks with full coilovers and bid for their OEM ones for cheap.

good idea , but most guys dump their stock shocks, when they upgrade.
