Reply #16 – February 16, 2015, 07:13:26 PM I never got a response on my plea for used 88 Turbo Coupe rear shock on here, nor on NATO, so I had to replace them with new equipment. Since we are not into big performance from this car which, up until now, was completely stock, we went with Gabriel Ultras on the back.The ride is plenty firm with these installed, and I hope they last for as many years as the originals did!

Reply #19 – March 25, 2015, 09:36:34 PM Well, the Gabriel shocks worked fine on the rearend, but their struts do not work on my TC.I finally got the refund from them yesterday after weeks of haggling about them not being the correct ones. This much I can tell you: I will never purchase anything from "Auto Anything" again.My KYB Struts have arrived & should be on in the next week or so.Ron Quote Selected
