What struts to buy when using stock springs?

AnthonyDalrymple · Jan 24, 2004

I know iI know; spring recommendations along with strut recommendations have been literally ground to death on this forum. I just felt that my situation is a bit unique & wish to get some educated opinions from fellow corral people, (not to mention it's late & I'm bored wating for the guys to show at the house). What struts, on a tight budget, with good O.E.M V8 5.0 springs, would be the best compromise? FYI... I'm leaning towards tokico 5 way adjustables.......

tokicos are priced right. i had monroe for awhile a fews years ago which i liked also.

I have KYB's and it is a ruff ride. I'm switching to the tokico's... I had KYB's with teh stock springs and they road ruff then too. Tokico's the only way to go IMO

"ruff" is good for handling if you have alot of power and/or achieve high speeds of over 120mph.

Were the monrue shocks ruff for you too? I had them in my first 5.0, that thing was ruff handled like a charm and great at high speed. I could feel the bumps on the road as if they were digging into the chassis.lol
