  • Q:

    This strut is for electronic ride use??
    My car is a Cougar XR, 1993, with electronic ride

    • A:

      This shock will bolt into place, but you will no longer have electronic control.
      The adjustable shocks, like yours, are very, very expensive and most people prefer to swap to regular ones such as this.
