Well it seems like bilstein hds are the consensus but I'm leaning towards the Koni yellows during tier sale going on right now. Ask away with you Q

I just bought some Koni Yellows and they ride great, the adjustability is nice also.Quote:

Is there anything else that I need when I get in there or anything that I should reuse? I am using the stock springs as well. Do all these oe parts work with the koni's?
yes, there is a rubber ring that goes on the springs in the front. YOu need two (one on each side).

Ok good to know, thank you! Any chance you know the part number for that rubber ring? I'm having trouble finding it. Are there any bolts that need to be replaced?
I have an extra in my box of goodies. try 3133109867 sping pad

Perfect,that looks like it! I appreciate it. Are there any bolts/nuts that I need that don't come with the shocks and struts?Quote:
