Just got my KYBs

Hey everyone, just thought i would let you know i got my kyb adjustable shocks with skunk2 coilovers. Couldn't afford the tiens. I just need to get my full camber kit and the biatch will be dropped. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] wish me luck! [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG] Let me know other fellow KYB owners on how you liked the shocks. Thanks.

i bought them from a local shop. i was told they were gauranteed to fit, and if they didn't my money was fully refundable, so i have nothing to lose, except a little time trying to install them.

Did the box for the fronts look big enough to contain the lower spring perch? Or is the box only big enough that it looked like it would only contain a strut cartridge? Thanks!

has anyone tried calling KYB yet? and isn't the KYB's for the 6th gen civic not good for a drop more than 2"? if it's like that for the 7th gen, then everybody with a drop more than 2" wouldn't be good for them....

Part number is KYB741007, thats whats on the box at least.. i did a look up myself, and these shocks were for the 2000 Integra. So I doubt they will work, i will at least compair it with one of them to see if there is a way to mod it, if not, back to the shop it goes. [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]
