[Shotimes] Struts & Springs

[Ron Porter]

FWIW,I replaced the factory struts (with about a 100K miles) on my former
'89 with Monroe struts. This was 10 years ago, and I don't recall whether
they were Sensatracs or not. They immediately felt stiffer (as they should,
replacing 100k-mile struts), and I felt the handling was just like stock
with no pogo-effect. They were on the car when I sold it 6 years and 80K
later, and they still seemed to be performing just fine......although the
rear springs were getting saggy by then.

Mark;

You have a 95 with the softer stock springs & sway bars. The Gen 1s with
the stiffer stock springs (JIT/EMT 130/200 lb/in) definately pogo with
sensatraks, in the front only. The rears are O.K.
