I just put new AC-Delco struts in the front, and AC-Delco shocks in the back. So far I am happy with them, and the price was decent. The shocks were $18 each, and the struts were $49 each.

Monroe Gas-matic plus is what I put on my Formula. They are good and they cost about what he says the AC-Delco's did.

I put Monroe Sensa-trac shocks on the back of my cavalier and they are really good, but they would have cost a lot to put on all 4 corners of my Formula So I settled for the Gas-matic Plus ones. I would recommend them, a better bang/buck ratio.

KYB GR2's front and back. It's not a night and day difference but you can definately tell they're there.

I think i paid 120 something shipped from Summit, but that might be a bit off.
