When I was doing my brakes, I noticed the front shocks were weeping a bit of fluid.

I pulled them out and ran down to Canadian Tire (THE Canadian auto parts place ) They don't even LIST front shocks for the 88..

I can order them from the net, but I'd like to buy locally.. Who should I try.. Is there a shock from another car that will fit ???

Just a few.

Try the "REAL" parts stores, my local ones all have listing for the 88's. Sorry but no offense, Canadian Tire sucks the big one for car parts. They don't have a listing for alot of stuff, and most of what they do carry is second rate stuff.

Wow watts !! That's quite a list.. Thanks a lot.. That should help tracking down the right shocks..

And yea, jelly2m8.. I realize Canadian Tire isn't the best.. But they are one of the biggest :-)

Try contemporary Motorsports, in Calgary, I ordered my springs from there.

Just search it on google.

Do you have an Autozone in Canada? (Ask for free shipping,takes about a week,quicker if you pay for shipping at Autozone).If not try your local phone book.

No Autozone in Canada.

Canadian Tire is not really the largest - it's just the most visable, there are a lot of other dealers out there that should be able to get the shocks for you. We have a few auto parts dealers in my area that can get any part for me if it exists. Check around at the others.

I actually got my shocks/struts(Monroe Sensatrak) from a GM dealer here in Toronto. They come with a lifetime gaurantee like most other places and I found the price to be comparable.

That was just my experience, YMMV.

I find NAPA the most knowledgable, reliable, in-stock-able for canadian quality fiero parts.... better prices than piston ring stores too.

PS.. Poncho... let me know if you ever want to sell your 88 coupe.
