    Curious as to what you guys are using?


    Right now my choices are:
    Monroe quick strut
    KYB gr2 complete quick struck assembly
    Acdelco complete assembly

    Or I could build them, although I dont want too. If i do that tho:

    Monroe strut, or acdelco strut
    moog springs or acdelco springs

    Don't even say lower it, not happening, and I won't be keeping the car long enough to make it happen.

    Thanks.

    Depends on the ride you're after.

    For a boaty cruiser, monroes are fine. I think they're on sale right now too.

    I've had my Monroe quickies on for 4 years now. If you want to keep it feeling and looking (as far as height) the way it was when it rolled off the assembly line you can't go wrong with Monroe quick struts.
