I think they were Monroes or Gabriels.Edit:Gabriel 14039http://www.autozone.com/autozone/parts/Gabriel-Steering-Damper/1988-Ford-Mustang/_/N-ihy8aZ8oxi5?itemIdentifier=8593_481907_20203_http://www.amazon.com/Gabriel-14039-Steering-Damper/dp/B001AM5P48 Autozone had the Gabriels listed at $24.99 w/3 month warranty, O'reilly auto parts had the Monroes for $27.99 w/lifetime warranty. I bought the Monroes. They also come with shock boots. Quote Selected
