They have shocks. They just don't have the struts to go with it. :ghey:

Car was made 1992-1994, 30,000 produced. Not exactly a wave of companies waiting to dump R&D into a product like that.

don't shocks = struts? h:

regardless, not too many of the 5spd vigors. my buddy has one that has 5spd. he looked for almost a year, 99% of them are auto.

I'd keep the car and keep fixing it up. they're hot.

plus, you got a good thing going as it is. why give up :dunno:

That car is impossible to keep going. I've seriously dumped over $10,000 into it and gone nowhere. Something is always breaking.

Shocks and struts are similar in that they both damp (slow down) the vehicles motion. The key difference of a strut vs. a shock is that a shock only controls the cars motion while a strut is a locating member of the suspension. What this means is that if you remove a shock the spindle or axle will still be completely attached to the vehicle. If you remove a strut the spindle or axle will be able to move outside of its normal motion. Shocks and struts may or may not have a spring mounted to them either. It is often assumed that any damper with a spring is a strut, this is not the case. [/google]
