<< Hi all I was wondering witch shox are u guys using and why. I am going to either use Eibach lowering springs or a set of Abt springs on my 85 urq, would the Konis or the Bilsteins be better for my car? >>


I have Eibachs with Konis on my '83 UrQ and H&Rs with Bilsteins on my '86 4kq (kinda sorta the same chassis). I like the ride and handling of the 4kq better. More supple, smooth. The UrQ is more harsh. Can't say for sure which has higher limits, and tires differ, but I prefer the H&R/Bilstein combo in these two cars.
