Wanting to replace shocks and springs on 2004 3.0 se suggestions please and as cheap as possible car is going to be used on weekends no tracks and not everyday car please help!!!!!
 
AUTODOC has 39% off today, was 41% yesterday. Will probably be 25% tomorrow, but worth waiting (normally maxes out at 41%).
Today CS rear springs are £26.27 and Monroe shocks are £36.90. I don’t know the CS springs but Lesjofors are reliable at £35.17. Monroe shocks are OK or Sachs (OEM) are available at £50.52. You’ll want top mounts too, but even decent ones are less than a tenner.
Fronts springs are about the same (Lesjofors £33.52) but shocks are considerably more (Sachs £89.13) and you may need extra kit like spring pads/plates and bump stops. Top mounts are about double the price of rears.
Both are doable for a competent DIYer, although you will need a set of spring compressors for the fronts, £25ish from eBay.
Depending on where you are, you may be able to find someone to help.
