Default Suspension question

I was gonna post this in the Civic forum, but it's not really Civic specific. Move if necessary.

I need to replace just one blown shock (KYB AGX), anyone have any ideas as to where I can get the best price on one? I had a site bookmarked on my laptop, but I killed the HDD ( ) so I can't get to it. Also, best bang for the buck lowering springs...? I have crappy adjustable coil-overs right now. Neuspeed maybe? Thanks!

How old are all the shocks? because whats the point of replacing one, and then the others are gonna blow? look into that and see if its better just to get 4 new ones instead.

94 HB

I don't think the others are gonna blow anytime soon, I just hit a wicked pothole on the highway, and I think that did it. They're about 1.5 years old.

Not under warranty that I know of...I'll check, but let's ignore that option for now

The blown one has only been that way for a few months, will they wear that unevenly that quickly?

Same kind of thing.
