Shocks can certainly be a pain. I'd much rather do shocks than struts. If I have to do shocks, I want to do old school shocks that are mounted to the upper and lower control arms in the front and to the body and axle in the back.

I prefer to not do struts (all though the inserts on a 911 aren't bad). And the shocks on a miata are kind of a pain because they are coilovers so you need a spring compressor. Yes, miata have factory coilovers (not height adjustable), but they are NOT struts.
