Default 91 Ax suspension

I've got a 91 AX Telstar Ghia for my daughter that has 158k on her & the suspension is getting soft. Not surprising seeing as it is still original.

I want to keep the existing ride height

What shocks & springs would anyone recommend & also a dealer in Sydney’s west
thanks.

Wait till a company has a suspension check special to see what is really needed

shop around for the parts and prices to choose the right place to do the work

You might get your rear springs retensioned for less dollars by a spring company
I never had any problem with munro shocks best to buy 2 new front shock /strut units .. check the suspension bushes on the lower control arms on the front as well
and the ball joints
Repco have their own parts/ workshops and wheel alignment centres
you can spread out the cost do the front first or the back
you will need a 4 wheel alignment after the whole lot is fitted
