Saggy rear end....need springs and shocks to boost her back up.
Recommendations please.... car will be used mostly as recreational driver. Perhaps some light Autocross, and a track day (maybe someday) Specific make for shocks, spring weight, etc and where to purchase? Attached image(s)

IMO, 140#s is too much for a -4. For a mainly street -4 like you describe, I'd say:
100# rear Boge (softer) or Bilstein (slightly firmer) shocks/inserts factory front sway bar or more aggressive: 100# rear Bilstein shocks/inserts 22mm (or larger) aftermarket sway bar And, I've had great luck with Pelicanparts.com... -Steve |
