Default door struts and shocks too ?

i just installed to new struts to the doors on my 93 diablo and boy what a difference, now i just pop the latch and up they go on their own, very very cool especially if you are just rolling to a stop as they go up....

my question to those of you with the older cars are do you think new suspension shocks would equally transform the ride, currently it rides harsh which may be normal, i have no point of reference

thks for the input

What struts did use?

Where did you purchase them?

Changing anything to new will make an improvement. How much? Difficult to measure depending on how bad yours are.

Funny you mention that because I was thinking about that today. My drivers door shock was changed by the previous owner, and like you describe, you just unlatch it, and it goes up automatically like a hydralic door. The passenger side requires a light touch because it's original (old).

Did u use OEM dealer shocks or aftermarket?
