Greetings all. I have a 94 850 5-speed and I need to replace the front struts and rear shocks. I have read all the post about how wonderful the Koni and Bilstein HD's are, however I don't feel like spending the extra $. (Still in college) I talked with some guys I know at a really good and trustworthy foreign repair shop, and they said the extra $ for the HD's for a car as old with as many miles is a waste. I'm about 90% sure I am going to go with the Bilstein Touring Class products ($77 per front strut, $36 rear shock). I am also considering (the other 5%) buying Sensa Trac products from Monroe. What are people's opinion on the Sensa Trac V. Bilstein TC? I live in Mi, where the roads are real bad. I still have the stock 15 inch tires, and just looking for the best overall shock/struck from under $100.
On another note, what else should I replace while I take-apart my car durning the holidays. I intend to replace the strut/shock mounts and bushings when I replace them. I also thought I should do my sway bar busings and links. Any other suggestions on things to replace before I place my parts order? Thank for everything.
