    I have been told gas shocks before. What is the performance differance in gas and air shocks. the airs were on it when I got the car, so I just didnt change them. If there is good reason to take them out and put in gas, im all ears.
    Nope, no drag for me. just want a pretty good running and looking daily driver.

    Isn't there a FAQ on airshocks somewhere? If not, there should be...

    Air shocks

    I had air shocks when i got my 72 grabber.The air shocks make the ride a little harder ride,and on my car it broke the top where the the shock mounts.So i will have to weld it back. I bought gas shocks to put back on it when i put on the road,if it sit down in the back, i will put a taller tire.

    You know what is crazy? I went out and looked at my shocks, and there is a crack in the frame where the air shock sits.
    I think im going to get it welded and put a set of gas shocks on.
    This isnt cool!
