Default Need a bit of assistance? YES YOU DO :)

So, I need to replace my suspension due to previous owner of my accord being dumb... front shocks, struts, driver side is busted and ride is very unstable. it's been lowered but the struts weren't changed along with the springs. I own a 03 2.4L ex coupe . . what should I do? are oem parts expensive? what if I want to keep my accord lowered a bit... what specs should I know for purchasing after market suspension . . . so, if anyone could help I'd welcome it =] thx

Smile Hello New Member

I moved you over to this forum, seeing as tho you posted your 1st post in the wrong forum..

1St rules is to post in the correct forums only..by reading then (the rules) 1st..

You should get your answers most likely in this correct forum.

Replace all of the components also get camber kits at the same time, also have the ball joints and other suspension parts checked and relplaced as need'd.
Figure if you want to adjust your cars lowering or if you dont..Coil-Overs if you do...Lowering springs if you dont..If your tires are all lopsided and worn out, replace them before you do all the work so you can have the car aligned after all the work is done and you start to drive her.. Hope this might of helped you out...

Well I'm a smart accord owner and when I changed my sprin gs I used Tockiko shocks. Havent had a problem yet. Smooth ride and doesnt take bumps to bad. And did I mention it's slammed. Check out the pics. You can find them on ebay for about 450$. Well worth it if you ask me
