Hey Guys....quick question. I have an 00 Mystique LS V6 ATX with 142k miles and I'm pretty sure its time for new struts because its riding pretty bad. I'm gonna get it checked out to find out exactly what it needs, but my guess is that it needs struts all around and probably some bushings in the rear since it's mighty clunky in the back. Anyway, does anyone have any opinions on what struts I should get? I took a look at the FAQ post and saw the ones that are available. Basically, I want something that is somewhat close to stock ride quality (roads are pretty bad here in NJ) with the same or better handling that aren't too expensive. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

Any new struts will feel much better than your worn out ones. Based on your statement above, I would consider replacing with OEM struts from Bill Jenkins. You could upgrade to SVT struts if you wanted things a little firmer. Very little price difference between the two.

I'm assuming you're keeping your stock springs.
