Title: struts and Quad shock Q's
Post by: outofnothing5 on April 28, 2006, 11:30:58 PM
do's anyone know a good place to buy performance shocks and struts?
I have quad shocks in the rear, the problem i have is that the shocks for mustangs and tbirds have different model numbers. are any of the shocks for mustangs compatible with tbirds?
thanks everyone.

Search on Nato for info about the quad shocks.  There is supposodly a part number for a steering stabalizer that is a perfect replacement for the quad shocks.  That part number is floating around on that site somewhere.

Just in case you, or anyone else coming across this thread, doesn't know what he means by "Nato"

If you have the factory quad shocks (a.k.a. axle dampeners), I've found that Advance Auto and Pep Boys carry Monroe (or Tenneco) quad shocks really cheaply --- around $12 each. You may have to order them for a Mustang GT as sometimes their computers don't list for a Cougar or Thunderbird; the Mustang parts are identical.
