JIMJAM,
What kind of Shocks do you have now? DMCH Performance, Hervey, Grady ECT. Having lowering springs doesn't indicate ( your flavor of shocks)

I am going to take off the tire today and take a good look.
During this time frame of getting the car right we also replaced just about everything either that gas or electricity flows through so I am a little fuzzy on the maker.

The front are white with a SpecialT sticker so I am gussing EasyRiders.
The rear are white KYB from another source. iirc he is part of a Delorean club that sells/sold shocks with the collars mounted per your pref.
I really do no want to put Easyriders back on but at that cost and availablility I probably will.
I just took the car for a drive over a section of 1/4 mile of street with a large speedbump every 100 feet. Old school zone.... Opened the door and listened. I cannot hear/feel anything wrong.
Typical old car,Delorean handling by Lotus racket.
Better safe than sorry.

You guys are great. Thanks for ther replies.
Well after 3 back surgeries in 2 years and developing the body of Elvis when he wore jumpsuits, I am whooped.
All I did was put the car on 4 ramps, take off the tires, crawl around,put em back on and off the ramps and it kicked my BUTT!
Saw what I am up against and not to jinx myself but I can handle it.
I always notice a new issue everytime I get under that car. My blood sugar is low and pain meds are kickin in so stay with me on this lol..... The air deflector plates? under the car are rubbing the "lower link?". I can see where the black paint has rubbed off and its shiney and smooth. Maybe a cards thickness taken off but I don likey. I tried to hammer and bend up the "aluminum?" shield but it flexes back. Something to keep a eye on.
Ok, I contacted Midstate where I got my KYB rears and see if he will sell me just the fronts. If not its SpecialT.
