shocks and coilovers

where can i get them, at a fair price....

so-cal seems expensive, but i dont know where else to go, help steer a nub in the right direction

 

Try some of those guys selling them on ebay.
Gearhead from IA is one source or maybe Speedway Motors in NE.

 

when it comes to coil overs you get what you pay for.. The cheaper ones dont have adjustable rebound and the real expensive ones have adjustment both ways...

What kind of car?

 

How do I pull my pants up? Ive seen it done, just looking for someone to tell me how to do it.

 

Grab your harley belt buckle ? oh ya you put that on your car as a hood ornament?
WTF anyway

I bought mine from pete and jakes but they weren't cheap I think they were around
$389.00 and are adjustable and look great.
Not sure how much So-Cal is charging.
Pete and Jakes are an alliance vendor.

 

k 385 is about what so-cal is charging, and they seem to hover around 300 for good ones all over the place, so thanks, i know what im doing now

 

I searched a junk-yard for a couple of hours, found an old Jeep truck with aftermarket coil-over air shocks. A half hour to take them off, a couple of days of fabricating and cussing, probably have about $50 total (and a heap of work) in them installed. Downside is the extra work, re-fabbing mounts a couple of times, changing the angle to change rate, adapt ride height, etc.

Thinking about doing it makes me tired

I use oval track shocks.

PRO or Carrera Steel Body Shocks, coil-over kits and then get the proper rate springs. Cheaper than street rod shocks and you get get the damping like you want. 50/50, 60/40, 40/60, etc.

Adjustables are more pricey.
