O.K. so technically I already have this suspension but the rear shocks blew out, These are the updated replacement rear shocks that will be going in this weekend.
I can't wait, my car rides and handles like crap with the rear shocks blown out.

Some of the early Multimatic rear shocks had defective o-rings and of course thats what I had.
These are actually the new redesigned Multimatics that just came out and aren't really even for sale yet.

They're for the Dynamic damper kit made by Multimatic for Ford Racing.

So I couldn't wait, I slapped em in after dinner. Man what a difference!
It feels like a nice car again and it handles like it should, I think it took all of about 30 minutes start to finish.

Are the new Multimatics valved any differently than the earlier versions, 'cause doesn't the new kit have different springs? Just wondering.
