    Default Suspension Question(skunk2)

    ok so i found used skunk2 shocks with adjustable coilovers that im very interested in and are in my budget.

    how can i know if the shocks are still good without putting them on my car. anyway to test them by hand?

    any help is appreciated

    press on them far as possible down and if it fully pushes back up then your good to go, if they dont then it's pretty much done

    i would push them down as far as possible till it touched the spring and it didnt go back up unless i pulled it back up

    thats means they are bad?

    they are gone.....you would be better puting the coilovers on your stock struts.(they would end up blowing to. )


    don't ever go to cheap on your suspension. and don't put blown crap on your car either.
