kyb shocks 850

posted by  someone claiming to be dg on  Sat Feb 18 10:02 CST 2012 [RELATED]

Hi everybody:

Decided to try KYB shocks this time. They claim to have 30 percent more dampening than twin tube OEM, so with the terrible roads up here in michigan, i thought it would be worth a try. The KYB's are made in Japan and feel really solid. To my disappointment though, they don't work with the OEM shock mounts on the car and I broke one of the bolts off the shock mount. So I ordered their mounts 27.00 bucks each (not a bargain anymore) and am off to sears or home depot to get a screw out thing.

Will let you know how this turns out in a couple weeks.
