Shock recs?

[tinkerkathleen]

Hello! wondering if yall have any recs for aftermarket front/rear shocks and springs for a first gen. I was thinking Koni but I couldn't find any that would fit. I'm pretty much a novice with suspension stuff so any information is appreciated!

Koni has been obsolete for while for SHOs. You might find some that someone might be selling. if you search for "Struts" in this forum, there are recent post of other looking for parts. here is an example of one post. you can probably get the whole strut assembly if you look on Rockauto, they tend to have close out prices occasionally

New struts Gen1

Hello everyone; I'm looking for new struts. It's been another 100K since the last ones and it's time again. I have had the Monroe's they were ok and then the Gabriel's which were a little better but neither were as good as the original Ford struts...

All of the performance strut options are long gone for this platform. Shosource might be working on another option for coilovers at some point but I wouldn't hold my breath. You will need to post in the groups to try and find someone willing to sell something or buy what you can online. I used to recommend Senatrac struts with Moog cargo coils but those have dried up too. Good luck!
