I'm running Bilsteins. But I've heard good things about Konis and Tokicos. See which ones fit your budget.

Find a set of used 03/04 cobra bilsteins
what bilsteins did you go with?
I picked up a set of 03/04 Bilsteins with ~17k on them, I am lowered w/Eibach springs and they're great.
If you want to buy them new, they're the Bilstein HD's.

Typical Americanmuscle? They have top notch customer service, FREE lightning fast delivery, & 6% discount for SVTP members.....Yeah theyre probably going to run out of stock, theyre not a multi-billion dollar operation like summit. They also usually restock in less than 5 days....If you want to spend $45 more from summit, go for it. But I would support americanmuscle and show a little appreciation. Also, try posting more often than just when you need advice or are selling something...:nonono:
summit is actually cheaper on the fronts, and rears only $2 more. free delivery, but dont they charge you a handling fee? i have waited weeks for them to restock parts before...i have always like them just seem to always be out of stock. i do alot of business with summit because of my business and other cars. so about the same price, $10-$20 in shipping rather then wait a month from americanmuscle yea im going to pick summit..and sorry i dont have the time to sit on the internet all day posting on forums, im alot more involved in my local forum...but thanks for the useful post.. get a life and dont whore my thread :bash:
They're a set of 03/04 take offs. The good thing is they can be rebuilt by Bilstein for less then half the price of new and then they have the full warranty. I'm lowered a little more then 1.5". I'm using cut 04 springs. I don't have a problem with them.

Typical defensive tool. Blow the extra $55, its your money. Don't ask for advice then stain your panties when you hear something you don't like.
I have the HD's on my '99 cobra. The race car has MM 2 Race valved struts and '00 Cobra R shocks.
Lots of 03/04 cobra owners lower their cars and never swap shocks/struts.
Best for the $$, low mile 03/04 Bilstein takeoffs.
wow lol...who made a meaningless post that had nothing to do with the topic bc they read something they didnt like? and you wonder why people dont post more? people like you...
I'm rocking tokico d-specs. They are awesome and can be set to match your car/spring perfectly.
i have eibach pro springs and 03 coupe struts/shocks, they work perfectly together. id suggest looking set of those in coupe or vert format.

Good lord dude, lighten up. :nonono:
You wanna be a dick, go hang out with the other d-bags in smackdown.
