lets see if you guys can steer me in the right direction, i am in the process of rounding up parts for a suspension upgrade on my 68 convertible & trying to decide which brand of shocks to buy.
the brands i am considering are:
kyb gas-adjust
koni
edelbrock
a little background on my setup:
the car is mostly driven on the street, and occassionally drag raced/driven hard enough to drift a corner when the situation allows it. i already did a 4 wheel disc conversion, with a set of 17/9" wheels. it has a 9" posi w/under rider traction bars, export brace, montycarlo bar, new ball joints, tie rods, and idler arm, etc....
the plan is to lower the upper control arms 1 inch and probaby just cut the coils a little ('70 boss handling guide says 1 coil) i also will install a 5 leaf/1" drop springs in the back with a sway bar. as well as all the free welding reinforcments in the '70 boss guide, along with a set of subframe connectors and new shocks.
so far i have everything except the sub frames and shocks.
any tips/advice?
