Hi Doug,
I don't know of any "kits". I just get the parts as needed.
Stiffer shocks will place more stress on the already flimsy shock
mounts & bolts. It's sometimes surprising how much better shocks in
perfect condition can be, as compared to "apparently" good old shocks.
Peter at WW Auto parts, does a better than new rebuild on your shocks, &
they are absolutely guaranteed to not leak or fail. He is the only
rebuilder that I would suggest. Check him out.
