Kevin,
I asked a while back about shock recommendations. I decided that
pricier must be better and went with the Edelbrock IAS shocks. Kind of
a nightmare to get them though. I called Summit Racing. I finally have
all 4 shocks in. I hope they don't suck.
I regret that you had problems with both the vendor and a defective shock,
but the IAS shocks have been perfect for me. When we used to have pure
hydraulic shocks, the Hurst/Gabriel 3 position shocks set on extra firm and
the Gabriel Striders (front) and Adjustable E (rear) 3 position shocks all
set on extra firm were my "gold standard." With the advent of gas shocks,
the older Gabriels disappeared. It took me forever to fine a decent shock.
Finally, I found Edelbrock's IAS shocks. They give exactly the performance I
want. Hopefully, that level of controlability and firmness will also be
acceptable to other people. I hope you will like the IAS shocks.
Anybody from the south want to trade homes? I hate
cold.
I can't trade homes, but Tucson is as close to Heaven as it can get.
Have fun Oldsmobuddies.
I know I will. :-)))
