Alright, I finally am getting a bit tired of my car's suspension so I am going to go ahead and ask here.
About a year ago I bought some KYB GR2's for my 2001 Galant ES.
Everything seemed good and dandy. Then at some point the car began sound terrible over bumps. The car seems like it has an extremely stiff suspension and over small and medium sized bumps the car makes really bad clunky noises. Obviously I think that the links need to be changed, but my brother thinks that the struts I bought are already bad.
When he bought his GR2's he says his 6th gen Galant became the smoothest bitch ever. Mine seems to be the complete opposite.
I have replaced my inner and outer tie rods, and all 4 struts/shocks with KYB GR2's. Springs are still from the original shocks.
Was there anything else I should have replaced, or is there something I should look at? Or are my KYB's defective?
I just want my car to ride nicely. If I have to in the future I will do a suspension overhaul if I have to get the quality of the ride back to normal.
