I am wanting to replace the shocks and struts on my 08 charger with the police package. Does anyone have any recommendations on which shocks to get, I am wanting a smoother ride.
You have the biggest factory sway bars, I would put in SRT suspension (shocks/springs) for ride and handling. I did this on my R/T and put in the police sway bars.
I'd second the idea of changing springs as well. Cop cars had stiffer than R/T springs but not quite SRT spec but they were also taller as well.
A set of SRT springs and shocks/struts will give you a noticeable drop from stock cop height (on my R/T it didn't drop me too much but still noticeable).
If you want a bit softer try to find some 300 SRT take offs they're the softest followed by Challenger and finally Charger/Magnum.
If you want to go new there is a nice Mopar package that includes all you'd need it is around $500-600 but you won't need anything else like adjustable bits because your alignment goes off after lowering etc. It doesn't seem like you're interested in a drop so I didn't mention coil overs.
I was thinking about putting in the KONI STR.T orange shocks & struts , when i talked to one of the "specialist" on autoanything.com they said those would work great, but I'm still unsure. i don't want to lower lower it, living in kansas the roads would be terrible for a daily driver.
I'm at the point at the OP, I'm trying to decide between the Yellow Blistien drop shocks and springs or the Eibach pro damper and drop set. There both around 750$ give or take 50$.
Anybody have a preference? Does anyone know where to get the best price.
