Q: Shock absorbers for a pontiac le mans
Good evening,
I have a question and I'm wondering if you might help me,
I recently bought a 1975 Pontiac, and the car is really bouncing a lot... So I figured that the shock absorbers need to be changed... what kind of shock absorbers do you recommend?
Thanks in advance, and a have a nice evening,
