Hi : )

I would install new shocks on my d24 245.

Right now it's a scary boat with worn out shocks and no swaybars....

I would like to know if you have some advices or experience to give to me.

I would like something honest and allowing me a good handling.

As i understood gas is harsher than oil.

I plan on dual front 19mm swaybar and rear sway bar. (wich i hadn't from factory)

Can somebody explain to me what is the rear reinforced version from the sachs manufacturer ?

Is a bilstein b4 set really an improvement compared to "standard" shocks ?

Thank you by advance.

Here are pics of my first car/first fill up : )
It's all dirty and ugly here but i've changed the lights and cleaned it.
