Just took off my OEM shocks my 1988 car came with when I acquired it 3 months ago. Car was not settling immediately when coming to a stop, a bit of bounce was happening. Once off, original fronts could be easily compressed by hand and would not rebound back, just stayed were I left them each time. Is this "normal" for this design?
New shocks, KYB Gas-a-just, took a lot more force to compress and would rebound back to full extension.
Got a few more odd jobs to do on car before road testing....will report back with how it goes soon...
