Pag sira ang springs, one obvious sign is body height sag. Mas mababa sa same model. Di lahat ng springs ang matigas o matagtag pag ngalay na, yung iba naman sobrang maalon ang ride. Kahit na bagong palit ang shocks.

Gusto nyo bang matagtag na ride? Bakit gas type ang balak nyo ikabit sa likod?

sumasayad kasi sa gulong naka 15" ako mags 55 series na gulong kaya may lifter ako ngayon sabi kasi pag nag gas type daw ako ang palit coil springs sa likod di nako sayad. so pag sira na spring medyo maalon ride? tnx

Aha, modified naman pala yan. Try the cheaper route first by testing it with new shocks at the rear. Then compare the ride handling and stiffness/comfort. Mahirap mag guesstimate thru web.

Matigas talaga ang gas shocks. Sa akin ito ang kinabit ko, yung 4x4 ko parang sakay lowered. Pero aware naman ako of the ill effects. Hindi naman talaga matagtag on bumps, the real difference that I see is that it will follow the road surface especially yung depressions. So bump ups for me is pretty good, yung bump downs ang problem. The shocks will pull the body to the wheels. The body does not float as much as fluid shocks. Pero oks lang sa akin, alam ko naman ganyan ang magiging effect. Kasi dati sa mga cars naman nag gas din kami kapag lowered na. Plus side is less body roll and for me it dampens the big bumps better.

i recently bought a 90 corolla xl. nkakabit gas shocks and bnew springs. ang tagtag! ganito b tlaga ang gas shocks? parang nka lowered ng ilang putol.

advise naman po what should i do para maalis ang tagtag.

mas firm talaga ang gas shocks pare. you can go the fluid shocks route if wala ka naman planong mag lower ng kotse para maging mas soft ang ride mo.

Bakit yung 91 corolla ko bagong palit din yung shock sa unahan fluid type sya at KYB ang brand bakit matagtag pa din?

**ssaloon** · August 9th, 2004 01:10 PM

check mo yung tire pressure mo. OEM pa rin ba yung springs? i mean, never pa sya pinalitan?

**POPU** · August 9th, 2004 02:20 PM

Actually pinacheck ko sa servitek pasig binawasan nya ng pressure yung tire kso ganun padin matagtag pa din

**POPU** · August 9th, 2004 02:22 PM

yung springs nya OEM pa din. di pa napalitan.

**ssaloon** · August 9th, 2004 03:44 PM

**Underground** · August 9th, 2004 04:03 PM

ssaloon,

what if plan ko magpalower ano at pano ang dapat kong gawin. gaganda ba ang ride pagnkalowerd n sya?

mas ok ba ang ride ng gas shocks paglowered sya?

**Underground** · August 9th, 2004 04:10 PM

can anyone help me on this? what if il buy second hand na fluid type na shocks? how will i know kung matino pa ang shocks? baka naman pagkabit e tumutukod na sa kalye pag nalubak o na-Humps.

Please avoid flooding posts.

Nothing beats the comfort level on stock settings. Yan na ang pinaka magandang ride. Lowering springs will always be on the stiffer side. And you can have peace of mind when you buy new shocks. Second hand options, will have if's and but's.
