New Bilstein 4600s-Huge improvement
Put a set of Bilstein 4600s on the 96. WOW! Really improved the ride. I honestly think the original shocks were still on. Had a bit of a hard time with the rears, but well worth the install time and money spent.

Well, Bilstein is a great brand, and if your were originals even the worst Chinese replacement would have been an improvement. I'm glad you're happy with the results.
