Shocks replacement?
Just wanted to know what types of miles did you guys get out of your stock shocks before needing to replace them?
I have a feeling that my front ones will need to be replaced... its just when i go over a bump or something i hear a squeak? also happends when i stop the car at the light quickly its not bad you can sometimes hear it and it sounds like its from the front

I replaced mine at 75K and technically they were still good, but I wanted a firmer ride, so I installed C32 shocks.

Did my shocks around 80K. They were shot.
Car was no fun to drive at all anymore.
No noise, just shot, handling was gone.
Got TIEN SS CO's. Matched shocks and springs.
Love 'em.
Bushings and end links were already replaced...
Someone had a used set of TEIN CO's for sale around here.
