Bouncy Bettys

Well, my girl just reached 108K miles I noticed the ride is getting alot more hard - I want to change the front struts and rear shocks. Is this something a weekend warrior can do or is it too complicated? I would like to keep OEM equipment so what struts and shocks are exactly on the car? or can someone recommend a shock system ? Chicago North Sider.
Thanks
Eddie

Bilstein is what should be on there.

Adam (moparcharger06) is the one to talk to. He can do the install. Unless you have the correct tools (spring compressor) and the other goodies then no a weekend warrior cant do this.

It's pretty straight forward, well, in my eyes. I do suspension for a living. If you need a hand or want it done, I can knock out all four corners in a few hours man

Adam is the man for sure. He swapped out my whole suspension last summer and did a great job.
