Nah, really though. This thing needs shocks like you thought you needed subwoofers in high school.

Shocks from a 91c first. It’s a little tiring to go through a dip 6 times because the suspension hasn’t sorted itself out.

KYB Gas-A-Justs make a huge difference on B-bodies. They’re easily the best budget shock option on the market.

“This thing needs shocks.”

You spelled ‘LS9 swap’ wrong.

I still think I need subwoofers. Nothing like a nice warm bass blanket to wrap yourself up in.

Stuck some bilstein HDs on my Town Car, but left the soft springs on. The ride is amazing. Soaks up potholes, no more seasick ride over expansion joints, lane changes are precise and no longer require counter steer just from the body roll. KYB gas-a-justs are a good stiff alternative to oem police spec too.

After you do that, consider replacing the steering column, steering gear, and ball joints. A few weekends work and a few hundo and it’s like a brand new car, but way better than anything on the market these days.

Also, hella jealous. Would love a clean B Body like this.

Right up until you see where it got rear ended and the driver’s taillight is fucked.

I have junkyard-sourced Bilstein HDs on my Aerobody. They’re great for smoothness, but a bit soft for the springs I’m currently running. My buddy has Gas-A-Justs on his P7B, and they put in some damn good work. Oddly enough, I haven’t had issues with the column, gear, or ball joints (although I will be replacing the latter in a few months just because). Great to see someone else rocking RWLs on a Panther.
