Just after some advice.

Currently have monroe GT Gas in my lowered KH wagon(only 30mm). Can't stand them because of how firm they are as many other people have mentioned.

Do a fair bit of country driving so I am after something that can handle the lowered car but to be as comfortable as possible. Road holding/handeling doesn't bother me much.

Was looking at red koni's but not avaliable for the wagons.

Anyone gone from GT Gas to something else for the same reason?

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have been contemplating the same thing.... gt's were great when I was doing alot of go-kart style driving but im starting to get a bit sick of the ride. I dont want to raise the car but I would like to get a bit of the ride back.

Dont have a clue what to change to tho :(

Think i might look at the shocks that came with the tj sports wagon. I know they are an upgrade on normal shocks and from reviews i have read on the wagon, it gives good road control while still being a comfy ride. Might be an option.

Any other ideas?

Thanks.

maybe try KYB. they are usually seen as around the same quality/price as the GT Gas, and will maybe handle a bit better or the way you want. so if you want to keep to the same budget, check them out

Just ordered the Factory sports shockers for the wagon.

Only $90each front and $60 each rear so cant really go wrong.

Will see how they go.
