I need to select a shock to use on my 67 beetle. The car will be a cruiser rather than a racer so I don't need to go to adjustables.. I want a fairly stiff ride.. What do I purchase?.. Thanks

OK.. thanks .. I know SFA about this.. Why Koni's?.. Are there certain types/model no's/lengths I should be asking for?:o

KYB's are good too.

Talk to Mike Sharp at Sharpbuilt.

my car came with Bilsteins on the back & KYB on the front, which is supposedly a very good combination, not overly stiff, gives a very good ride & excellent handling.
