Thanks for the tip on the 04 shocks! I shall investigate this... Doesn't sound too expensive... Does it require an alignment afterwords?
No realignment needed. You'll be very pleased w/ how the shocks excorcise the disconnected floaty feeling when transitioning.
There's a small course we run & one particular corner would upset the car w/ the stock shocks.


After I replaced the shocks, then back @ the same corner--problem solved
Abt $320 for the set--$$ well spent...
