I havta replace the rear shocks in my '97 Eldo and I am seriously considering the Arnott A/M shocks.

Anyone have any experience with them?

I have replaced both front and rear with Arnott one (1) year ago, I am very happy with them. Also, you can't beat the lifetime warranty.

Ordered my Arnott rear shocks today. Planning on installing them Christmas week. I want to replace my front struts. They are totally passive with no electrical connectors of any kind.

Opinions on good brands?

I have ACDelco's on the front and Arnott's in the back (long story... don't ask)

I wish i had bought the Arnott's for the front end as well.....

Rear replacement took me 30 minutes of actual tooling time per side. (not counting the beer/sigaret/chat to neighboor/sigaret/beer breaks)

Important you have the correct tools though, otherwise it can become a nightmare.

On the top of the original shock (assuming you still have those) you will need to have a Torx bit of the proper size and from good quality.

On my car i managed to screw up two bits before i went out (pissed off!) and got me a complete new high quality set (don't get me started on the price of that!!!!)

Even with the new set i was afraid they would break because of the forces i needed to apply to them but luckily enough they managed to hold that time on both sides of the car.

Good luck!

If you are in complete control..... you are not going fast enough....

I put together a little slide show, when I replaced my stock shocks with Arnotts.

Best to download file, and then view on your local computer.
