    Lets Talk Shocks

    I'm looking at new shocks up front for my 1998 expy. I currently use the beast as a daily driver, but take it offloading at least once a month. I purchased this vehicle with no prior history, as it was from a police auction. It currently has 35" tires with what seems to be at least a 1-2"...

    Ouch, what an expensive phone call to the shop...

    Thanks.... great stuff guys. Thanks for the support. Now all I need is the write ups I guess. The one thing I did notice on this board is a non-existant FAQ with write ups and common problems. In my other Audi TT forum we have a FAQ with a great resource of information. I ordered...
