Thanks for the tip on the gas shock. I did already order them. So I will see how it handles.

There is definitely a down side to buying a car built 22 years ago, without receipts , or assembly manual, or being able to talk to a previous owner. As well as, the build company being out of business. But then again, very affordable up front cost, vs a new f5 or Super, and others. I would love to have a new Super, they are very sweet, but more than double my investment.

As far as the current suspension, I would classify the front as very firm and the rear as soft. The rear shocks seem to still be in good working order, but soft. Do you recall what shocks your running before the coil over conversion?

If I end up with coilovers at some point, I agree with the double shear confidence.
