KYB shocks suck!

Oh wow.....I didn't know that!
 
I always used gas replacement up front and have had the KY B'S on for the last 6000 miles, they seem ok anything is better than a stock oil filled. I may try the Belsteins.
 
I owned Tim's Red Valiant for a couple of years. I thought about getting the license plate "ONRAILS" because it handled so good. Guess what the rear suspension was? 40+ year old leaf springs with custom valved Bilsteins and AR Engineering front leaf spring hangers and a Firm Feel sway bar.

Yeah that is true. We tried multiple rear leaf springs including Mopar circle track springs but in the end the factory 340 springs worked the best. That car was built before Bilstein was making Mopar shocks so it had semi-custom shocks on it. These days it would probably get Koni shocks. I've switched my stuff over to Koni shocks with custom shock plates to get the lower mount position correct.
