I now have 80,000 miles on my Z-28 and it is time for shocks. I will
probably replace all 4. I am just a summer driver, and only need a quality
choice, and not for performance.

Can you give me some ideas? For me in North Dakota, I have a convertible,
only drive it 3,000 miles per year, so keep that in mind.

Thanks, Jerry

 

Use the search, there are lots of threads on shocks

 

Just use KYB... It meets OEM standards...

 

Bilstein, KYB or Koni. First two are less expensive, around $400 or so, and Koni's are $800 about. All are good. I went with Bilsteins to save some money. Do a search for more info

 

+1 for the KYB.I only drive about that same amount of miles,thus i bought a set of 4 used from Ebay thus saved big bucks off new.They also were adjustable which means you can have a softer ride or performance one.Kyb also makes a Gas adjust shock if you don,t need the adjustable version.

 

I have the KYB gas-adjust on my trans am. I drive mine about 5K per year and these are perfect. They were not expensive and made a huge difference of the stock decarbon shocks. I think I got a whole set for like $350 on the net. The rears were real easy to do. I had a shop do the front shocks they were a bit more difficult.

 

Has anyone run the tokico blues on one of these cars??????

If so, how did you like them????

I gotta do springs/shocks soon and was thinking pro kit/tokicos.
