"NEED" for Struts/Shocks

[RC-5.0]

Is there a reason that swapping the struts/shocks is "necessary" or is just for ride comfort? I have LCA/UCA/Reloc bracket/Sway bar, and looking at a 1-inch drop in the rear and panhard bar. Are the Struts/shocks REQUIRED? I dont track the car and im happy with the ride.

Thanks
RC

If your happy with it then there is no need. Shocks/struts are for modulating the compression or rebound in a different way than stock. Usually they are done if 1) road racing or 2) drag racing.

"If it's not broke" is my motto. Nothing aftermarket will be as comfortable or as quiet. I have kept mine as stock as possible.

It's not a necessity, but having the ability to adjust and fine tune the ride to allow for a bit more comfort when you want it doesn't seem like a bad idea to me.
