Ok Looking at replacing the shocks on my 98 here real soon. I would just like to get some ideas and thoughts from the forum here on which ones to get. I would like a nice ride still, but maybe a little better in the performance department than the stock ones. Just a few that I am looking at, The Bilstein HD's, Edelbrock performers, Koni's high performance shocks, or just GM's touring shocks.
I have about a grand set aside for them, and only want to change them once and get some good ones the first time.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

 

I like the Edelbrock shocks. All that you mention are good, but I have a slight personal preference for their design.

 

I've always liked Bilsteins. In fact, their R&D facility is 20 miles away from here. They make fantastic shocks - had em on my 68 for years. I went on a tour of Edelbrock's factories a few years back and they showed us their shock-testing machine. They call their shocks "Inertia shocks" and I like the idea. I just don't know anyone who has them.

Thanks Lee and Dave
interesting, these were my first two choices. I have used Bilsteins before, and I like them, But I was curious about Edelbrocks also....

 

Looks like i am going with Edelbrocks inertia shocks. I like Bilsteins, however don't really like the color.
I think the Edelbrock's will be just fine, and a descent price also.
