Is there a way to tell if my springs/shocks are shot? If I replace them, what are some recommedations for replacements? I put the standard Monroes on before and they only have a one year warranty, and they didn't last much longer than that.

 

usually when the car has high miles as a daily driver than its probably a good idea to change them.

a good combo seems to be the eibach pro-kit and kyb gr2's for struts and gas-adjust shocks for the rear.

run a search too see people opinions, i was going to use that combo but i went with more of a drag suspension setup.

 

Get on the corner of your car and push down on it hard several times and let it go, if it seems to bounces more that once or seems mushy your are probably in need of shocks. I agree with the springs and shock recomendation above. And if you don't have SFC's you need to get some NOW. Not only will it make your car handle better it will also eliminate "most" of those sqweaks and rattle.. This will also allow your suspension componets to do there jop properly since they won't have to cope with the excess body flex. If you are not into the springs at least do the SFC (if you don't have them already) and shocks. You'll be happier for it
