Ya know i figured that maybe it was my shocks...but considering they were fine just a week ago, doesn't it seem weird that both shocks went out at the same time? or does that make more sense? and its weird that I haven't noticed any difference in ride quality?...

so do you have any recommendations for shocks? I have a lowered car...so i figure i'd need some aftermarket shocks. hopefully something good but not too expensive. can you guys give me a couple of suggestions and the relative price?...so i know im not getting ripped off when i call the shops? Thanks!

Yea, i was using the stock jack that comes with the car...and I know i don't HAVE to jack the car up to change the nuts, I just figured it'd be better to put in the extra effort...and look at what i found...=(
