i have a 04 cav lowered with eibach sportlines. first of all i dont know if it has shocks or struts, and second of all what kind of shocks or struts should i get to replace the stock ones??
thanks
You have struts, and there's many different options, what's your budget? Do you want adjustable or non-adjustable?
There's KYB, Koni and Tokico basically. The koni's are an insert for the front so I'd suggest against those unless you feel confident in your abilities to chop up your stock suspension (which given the fact that you asked if you have struts or shocks, imma guess you're just beginning).
i have had the car for a while and i just havent done anymore mods do it. i cant afford a new car so im just gona take care of this one. i dont need anything fancy. just something to stop the car from being so damn bouncy.
I would say your best bet with the Sportlines would be Tokico D-Spec's.

You probably will need to go with some Tokico's for the sportline drop..
D-specs are expensive, You could go with Blues (HP) too as they are just non-adjustable D-specs.
Or you could get some Koni's. Running Sportline's will require more expensive struts usually because of the drop.
what website would you recomend i order from??
TTR. Car customs. APP. I'm sure there are more too.

would these be ok.GR-2 Twin-Tube Gas Struts Set
GR-2s are stock replacements. They aren't meant for a drop.
Like I said, The struts you will need to get are going to cost you some. Look at the drop rating. If there is none, Then it is a stock replacement most of the time.
