Question about shocks - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

voxdeidave · 06-08-2011

So I'm getting ready to pull my front FX3 shocks off to send them back to Bilstein for rebuilding. I've already done the backs, and what a difference!!!
I'd like to stick a set of cheap, non-FX3 shocks in there just to keep me on the road while my set is off to the rebuilder. Any suggestions?

Thanks guys!
Dave

Since it is only temporary buy cheap ones and drive conservatively.

I got the Monroes for a base coupe I used to have. They held the wheels on, but they were soft. KYB's would be better and you may be able to sell those afterwords since a lot of people want them on C4's.

I chose to leave my car on jackstands for 2 weeks, but I did miss it. Maybe somebody has a pair of store-boughts you can get cheap.
