Hey guys,
Looking to purchase a pair of rear KYB shocks (or struts idk, i've gotten mixed information here. I'll call them shocks from here on) for my LS and I'm in need of some info.
When I purchased my Eibachs over 3 years ago, I also ordered a set of KYB shocks. However, not long after I placed my order, I got a call from tirerack saying that the eibach springs and KYBs were not compatible or something along those lines. Can't think how they would not be compatible if KYBs and Eibachs are meant to be direct fit parts, but hey I'm no expert.
Anyway, I want to go with the KYBs. They seem to meet my needs: fair price, firm ride, and from what I've read on other forums they sit a bit lower than stock shocks(just what i want for my rear). So i'm ready to purchase, I just need to confirm that there will be no issues fitting my eibachs on the KYB shocks. I do not want to go back to stock ride height.
Can anyone confirm (for a fact) that there will be no issues? Also anyone running them can you share your thoughts on their performance, durability and overall experience so far?
Thanks in advance. Ready to order these as soon as I get some feedback. Can't stand noises on my car.
