im getting superlows in my ed soon, but i have absolutely NO idea about shocks. all i know is that i need a shortened shockie cos im running superlows. so i need to know some brands and models if possible so a mate can get them for me.

all i know is kyb something and i need 4 and not to be spending an arm and a leg [ie koni adjustables].

I got Monroe GT's in my EF because I heard that they still gave a good ride with superlows, and they do. They wouldnt handle as good as others, but they dont bottom out with a full car load, dont pound your ass on a long drive, and they are well priced.

well called a few places and decided on kyb shocks. just incase anyone else wants to know im getting part number 833001 in the front and part number 343327 in the back with kings superlows all round. the guys at kings springs were great, they knew more about kyb shockies than the guy at kyb did.

I'm running KYB shocks with my Superlows. You will be happy.

how much r those kyb shocks for a front pair? and is it essential that i get shortened shocks with superlows because i just bought Munro GT gas shocks a few months back.

Fordz

Yeah.. Also curious about the KYB. About to order some Superlows for my ute and realised I need shocks with them aswell!

Also, howmuch are the Monroe gas GT's?

You can run superlows with standard shocks, however it will kill them faster, so if you just bought some recently you might be better to keep them and sell them, or keep them in case u want to sell ur car without the suspension setup?
