    What brand of shock did they get you? Always good to know this stuff. All you need is the suspension bushes and rod ends and it'll drive like new (or better)

    These are what I got: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083WML17D..._N1I8EbZXSEE0H

    The shocks that I removed were also Monroe, but were yellow instead of blue. I don't think that these were as expensive as the ones that I took off, but they are new and for my intended use should work just fine.

    Steering and suspension components are definitely on the list. I think that the previous owner (prior to the young gal that I got it from) was obsessed with greasing things. All of the joints have been over greased and have grease caked around every grease fitting and boot. They all seem to be in good shape, just really covered up in caked on grease/dirt mix. A few of the boots look to be in rough shape, so I know that the time will come to get those all replaced as well.
