Gabriel shocks?

[Sonicxtacy02]

Anyone ever hear of em? Are they quality? Its time to buy new shocks and considering this is the backup backup car i dont wanna spend too much. Any other recommendations?

Great shocks for the money. Get the VST ones. They're probably the most recommended shock on this site.

Gabriels, Pepboys, Texas, and more

In the Texas area, Pepboys no longer carries Gabriels. They have switched to Monroe. Also, the Gabriel website shows that they have changed up their shock models and that the VST no longer exists.

Yea i went to the site and didnt see VSTs. The ones i purchased were Proguard ( i think?) I got a set of four on ebay for 30 shipped. I'm sure they are better than the stock ones on there now. If i hit a speedbump at 10 miles an hour you can see wrenches fly up in the trunk!

Guess they switched to calling it "stablesteer" or something.
