Had a ‘86 Blazer with snowplow and heavy duty suspension came with twin shocks up front when I replaced them I went with Rancho RS 5000 ?
I put those same Ranchos in my 2002 a couple of years ago. Night and day difference. I don't think my old shocks were doing anything at all.
It has new Koni orange shocks/struts with lowering springs.
Any regular shocks should be fine, when I deleted autoride on my suburban I used rancho shocks from rock auto.
Koni Special Active shocks are really good on these cars if looking for a fast road/light track set up. I previously put them on a 993 so opted to get them on the 996 too.
Koni Orange (STR.T) works fine with Voghtland springs and is not overly expensive.
Boas, tive um Golf V durante 12 anos. Usei molas de rebaixamento + amortecedores sport (koni), usei suspensão original com molas de rebaixamento e por fim usei coilovers.
I have Koni reds. I just wanted to rid of the wafty ride, and it fixed it up. It is a little too firm now for my liking but still better than original
I had Koni yellow with stock springs. Maybe a little better than the stock shocks but started leaking after a few years. Didn’t want to screw around with sending them back to Koni and waiting for their warranty.
I have orange Koni’s with Vogtland springs they didn’t last 25k miles and now my front two fenders almost touch my tires and the rear are almost as close.
