    1998 GT has 150K miles and neither have been replaced. I don't want to lower the car just decent shocks and struts. Any brand recommendations? Thanks!

    struts are the shocks of our suspension. Get some quick struts, the ones that are pre assembled. Good brands are ac delco, monroe, kyb.

    Thanks! KYB seems to be way cheaper. Is there a big difference between them and Monroe/ AC Delco?

    Installed KYB GR2s on an 05 GT this spring. The provide just enough damping but wish they were a tad stiffer. I would have preferred the adjustable AGX but they are not made for 05 and other years around 05. AGX are available for 98 so I would recommend those but GR2s will do if price is an issue.
