First off, if you can drive the car over 25 MPH without it jumping all over the road with no shocks then you have a spring issue.

The springs are weak or need lubricant. If the springs are good then the car is horrible to drive above 25 MPH. It will feel like you going to fly off the road.

After you get a shock set up I would say you want to take at least the front springs off and make sure they are clean and lubricated. The other option is to buy a quality front repro spring.
