I want to upgrade but I'm finding the older units hard to find in adjustable options

far as I know, SAs and FBs use the same struts and shocks.
apparently horsepowerfreaks are out of business now. so I guess i'll be going back to NOPI for certain parts when I need them.
Suspension | Strut or Shock

wow. I just clicked the Nopi link I posted and it doesn't take you directly to the page I had up last night. anyway, i'm sure you can figure it out. one thing to note though, try bringing up the '83, '84 or '85 model years because for some reason, everything older only lists the rear shock for the Illuminas, but those 3 years list the front struts, too. also, check for other vendors, I only went there because I've bought parts from them before, but you may find better prices elsewhere - I doubt it, but you might. good luck.

Thanks guys I am confused cause noticed there were different partnumbers one for 79-80 then 81-xx for kyb and your right tokiko only show rear shocks for 79.
I.wasn't very happy with Last pair of kyb I bought for another car so want at least Tokiko adjustables or better
I'll take a look.at NOPI too.
Spent lot of time at your pages Aaron real good stuff learned much! Too bad so many links or companies gone now.
