For as a daily driver, I need new struts on my 1995 Liberty (Legacy to you guys) my rears have gone way out, bouncy etc so i need new struts.. I have been filled up with so much information and I cannot decide what I want.
The options are -
Go with KYB? Monroe GT Gas? Bilstien?
Someone filled me in saying I should get wagon springs since they're stiffer?
What should I do? what options should I get? I don't wanna lower my Liberty down as I have enough "damage" on the front as its low enough because of the damn driveway I have. But I want my suspensions to handle the car very well for windy roads (I live in area where there is lot of windy roads, approx 18 kilometres of windy roads average speed 60kmh in 100kmh zone)
Thanks guys for the promt answer
Cheers

I'd probably recommend the Bilstiens out of that bunch.
I'd also recommend you replace all four struts at the same time. Replacing just the front or rear struts with different struts can produce undesired effects on handling.
For example. I had monroe struts on the front & KYB in the rear. The car was very tail happy, and would break loose mid-corner when I was pushing hard through corners.
