KYB is a well known name in the performance suspension world, along with Tokico,Bilstein,Koni and others. To check out prices on the net type in "KYB shocks" in your search engine, be sure to check Ebay too, there are usually shock/strut packages available there. Then you will have the information to see if your contact has a good deal or not.

Hmmmm, don't they make a lubricant that...OH, you mean KY..B. Seriously Gary, A lot of Corvette's use them, in fact I had them on my Vette for awhile back a number of years. I seem to remember they were great for cornering and stability but sure rode hard.

i think i got it right in the middle, i recieved
all sorts of weird parts that didn't belong together
like the guy was on crack who packed it.

When i called for stuff that was missing they sent me
a new hardware box, so i used the new one.
