Default S tech question

I have a 95 tc with 94k in miles...I lowered the car back in 05 w stock shocks...(s techs)...question , I just got my car back and it needs work, starting with shocks , brakes etc....

Can I still keep the old s techs w/ Trd shocks or are the springs gone already

As long as your springs aren't all rusted out you should be fine.

how did you get a 95 TC?, if your sig say's WEST LOS COUNTY you are fine on rust. S techs might give to much body roll.

In my opinion you should get new springs and shocks. If shocks were beat up then the chances are the springs are not in the best shape. Especially if the car was lowered back in 05. You could still drive on them but it would just be safer for you to drop the extra $200 and have a brand new set up.
