If its not my door ... its mine car being vandalized and if its not that then its my rear gas-shocks! Well, one of my shocks that holds up the rear hatch exploded and hydraulic oil shot all over the rear of my interior...Now im pissed and here goes some more money in to my Camaro... Now the damn thing reminds me of that thing that's yellow and eats money "you know!" you put money on its hand and and eats it and after its done it rolls its eyes and sticks out his toung" im ether going to get new shocks, or new wing but im not looking at spending a s*it load of money
does anyone know what shocks where made for a 87 GTA hatch with the wing?

 

Haha, whos cars better now!! muahaha!!

 

I think the rear hatch shocks are the same on all of the cars. I replacecd mine about 3 years ago with whatever the book said under 'Firebird/TransAm' They worked fine.

 

man first time i heard of that happening, sounds like a big mess.

is it coming out of the carpet at all?

 

i just replaced mine, got a pair from strauss auto. lemme see if i can dig up the reciept. btw, the cost $30 a piece

 

Not all shocks are the same, some are stronger to accomodate for a rear spoiler and such. Just go to a parts store and look it up, most of them have a book there that you just look it up in and get the right ones.

 

Well, they always say bad things come in threes. Don't know what to tell you. None of that has ever happened to me, so I can't really sympathized with you.

I do hate it when you have something nice and then something happens to it. Sometimes it makes you question why you worked so hard it on it in the first place. When you fix it - then you remember what it was all about in the first place.

 

When you get your door fixed you might wanna think about a different color for your car. Just a suggestion.

 

ROBIE!!!!!!!!!!!

 

RADIO SHACK ROBIE THE BANKER! STILL GOT 3 OF THEM IN MY HOUSE! NONE WORK AND ONE HAS A BROKEN ARM THOUGH LOL

 

don't feel bad man... I bought mine a sunday of october 2001... it was night so I pulled up in the driveway and it stayed there the whole night. Next day, I pull her out and go to school with it... I am the coolest guy of school that day... I bring her for a spin that night... and ram a deer in the middle of the town!!! gone the hood and fender... dentless white 85 TA... afterthat a girl slammed the brakes in fron ot me and I bumped her rear... gone the bumber... then my mom rammed it in a stop post in the winter... gone the underside gfx's... now, nothing else happened... like it was said before, everything comes in 3... don't feel bad

 

everyone had a ROBIE, them things were hilarious and really loud as i remember

 

It's okay man, in a few months, that'll be 3 things that are in better shape & won't need to be fixed anymore.

When dumb crap happens to my car, I just think about how it'll be better than new when I replace it.

 

Were you the one who was considering drilling holes in them?

 

if it counts mine got broken into 4 times the first month i had it and i think it was the same guy all 4 times never successfully got her but didi take the radioshack tape player the lady i bought it from put in since then its nicer, 1500 in stereo stuff and one helluva good alarm never been stolen but they've tried since
