Shock absorber swap from an 05 Accord to an 05 TL
Noob here!
My wife wants a new car but she'll take my 05 TL if "the ride wasn't so bumpy."
The devil in me was wondering if I could swap out the 05 TL struts for 05 Accord struts...I think the Accord struts are identical to the TL's but with softer valving. Then, I could get a new TL.
Could this be done? Please, help me #itch My Ride!
Sincerely,
Noobie88

I would be careful with accord ones since the accord is a much lighter car (200 for v6, and a lot more for the I4) but if you do get the I4 struts, you might end up with a worse ride. Go to the dealer and ask if you can ride in a 07-08 BASE TL, the ride on them are softer than the 04-06
