Re: [DML] New Shocks a MUST!!!



Dick,

We are always happy to hear owners experiences concerning new products.

In defense of the PJ Grady shocks and price keep in mind that Rob spent almost two years researching and testing various brands to insure that the replacement shocks would not only exceed ride and performance criteria but would also be of the highest quality possible. There were "off the shelf" versions that would fit the bill but Rob was not completely satisfied with their performance and construction. 

The PJ Grady shock absorbers are custom made for the DeLorean based on Rob Grady's stringent specifications. This custom limited production is another reason for the higher price. In addition to nitrogen charging, the shocks also contain a pressure adjustable valve for owners who want to tweak the pressure to their personal liking. A heavy duty cir-clip collar is used for mechanical height adjustment and the shocks are re-buildable.

Once again I'm sure that the shock kit from Midstates DeLorean Club is everything you say it is but I wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of the reason for the additional cost of the PJ Grady product.

As a supporter and admirer of Rob Grady, I am always
pleased to hear good things about his products. 
However, I, too, recently put new shocks on my car and
opted for the shocks sold by the midstates DeLorean
club. Price was the primary reason and the fact that
I know Marty Maier and his car made me feel the shocks
would be a good investment.

I recetnly put 2300 miles on my car in less than a
week and I am VERY pleased with the change in the
ride. On the one hand, it is very sublte. The car
still handles like a sports (sporty?) car, but the
ride is much smoother. Despite its smoother (softer?)
ride, it does not wallow. 

I can't compare these to any other aftermarket shocks
being offered by the typical vendors and have nothing
bad to say about any of them. However, if you need
shocks and like to save some money, I would strongly
suggest you check these out.
