i like my k2rd coilovers...... the shocks have a big adjustment range, so i think it would be happy with anything, under 400lbs

you can do the shocks and springs without really touching anything else, but it is a good time to look everything over; brakes, sway bar links (mine were broken) upper strut tops. also make sure you rotate the upper strut top so that it is back and toward the inside, they are eccentric

what do you mean by the upper strut top? the rubber thing that bolts into your frame?

yah the 4 bolt thing between that bolts thru the fender. the strut is NOT centered and you want it as close to the inside rear as you can get
