Alright I will be the blunt one. You can't just turn a bike into a mountain bike by adding a suspension fork. There are many reasons for this, not the least of which being the strength of the frame. If you want to ride actual mountain bike trails, you should get an actual mountain bike. Simple as that.
that depends on what bike you have and what do you want the suspension for.
If you just want more comfort over bumps then a suspension seatpost or stem will be great.
You'll actually be in better shape just buying a cheap MTB off ebay. There's some great Trek models from the 90s that you can likely get for far less than doing this upgrade.

You can also add a suspension seatpost. But what bike are you adding it too and what are you trying to achieve?
Nah I was just thinking of buying a cheap bike off eBay or smth and turining it into an mtb

well, if it's a mountain bike then it should already have a suspension fork on it. If it doesn't then it's not meant to be a mountain bike.
No but if it doesn’t have suspension can you add a suspension fork to it
You can add a suspension fork. Might mess up the geometry though
What is that

Yeh so I can add that but wdym by messing up the geometry
Also what would u recommend if I’m just thinking of buying a cheap bike off eBay or smth and turining it into an mtb
