jblake, I answered your shock question on the CR site but I will answer here again for general info if anyone else is looking for the Pro-Shocks. I use an SM600
oil filled, chrome Pro-Shock. The have very light valving so they work great on the rear of the CR car. The only problem with them is the extended length. They don't make them as long as needed so the upper shock mounting hole must be redrilled about 1 1 /2 inches lower to accomodate this. Not a major problem unless you don't have the tools to drill a new 1/2 inch hole. I am a dealer for Pro-Shocks along with DV and many others I'm sure. The cost is $80 per pair. The shocks that are on your car are probably Monroe, the number sounds like the old Monroe gas#. They are extremely stiff for this car. You will notice that when you push down on the rear it takes along time for the car to return to normal ride height. This causes the rear to bottom and not rebound fast enough causing the rear to bang and clunk on bumpy roads. I'm sure there are other shocks like Koni available but I've never used them.
