I love the Koni adjustables, but the Bilstein's are also pretty good and a bit more affordable.

If you want a more factory ride the KYB Excel-G, Monroe blue gas shocks, would be a good choice. If you want a bit harsher but better cornering Koni, KYB Gas Adjust would be good

I have Bilsteins on my 71 TA, not harsh at all, but handle very well, better than stock!

Finally replaced the shocks , went with the KYB Gas adjust
The old ones were not original but were made in the USA and were all shot none of them would rebound after compressing them , not sure when they were changed last. Car handles so much better and doesn’t push threw the corners anymore Next upgrade will be replacing all the bushings and front end parts.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
