Shock recommendation
« on: March 04, 2006 - 09:10:10 PM »
Does anyone have any recommendation for shocks for a 383 R/T Challenger, front and rear, non-dragstrip application? Am looking to improve the handling. Car has front/rear sway bars. Thanks.

Edelbrock IAS performers are excellent. Comfy as and still super firm.  :thumbsup:
I can only push the rear end down about 1" max...fantastic!  :ylsuper:

Hi, what springs do you have? I can see that your car is sitting pretty low and I like it.

I have IAS Shocks and XHD springs but they are not installed yet.

Sorry my bad english...I'm just an european...
