...which ANY shock manufacturer would be consistent on, even if they might provide an "adapter kit" in the box with the shock. Now, why does KYB have "a gap" in their coverage? Might even be as simple as "an over-sight" they made, not knowing that? Which is why I looked in the Gabriel and...

One more question, would a firmer riding shock like KYB or Bilstein ride higher than say a base Monroe or Gabriel shock? (Or as high as the ones I have now)?

If it's a gas charged shock, yes. Conventional shock that's not gas charged, no.

customer supplied or it was the part number that matched from your supplier? wonder if the supplier or customer got the wrong part. I bought the gas-a-just for a 67 fury from rockauto, and the shocks were the same size and everything. A few of us down under (and some on these forums too) have...

...from them, and looking at the prices of the stuff they sell...to be frank it's a ripoff. I've always just looked up parts on their site, then just going to rockauto to see how much cheaper it is lol. As an example, the KYB gas-a-just rear shocks they sell is about 55 AUD cheaper from Rockauto.

...ride height. Springs n things (Leaf Springs For Your Car or Light Truck 1940-1990's+ ) among others can happily accommodate you in this. KYB isn't all THAT stiff, but their product reacts very well. The only way to really add ride height with shocks is to either get air shocks, with all...

...grommets still in but I see a metal sleeve in them from what I believe are the original shocks. I believe I remove these before installing my new KYB shocks with new grommets. I want to make sure before pulling them out and also what about that metal sleeve? Any insight and experience is...

KYB, KYB, KYB..

KYB Gas Adjust are what I use on my 68 fury.

Good choice

I found a good looking deal on NOS KYB front shocks, back fr when they were painted white, and tempts me. I might snap at it. Damn globalization of labor sure as **** draws flies is a race to the bottom for quality product.

Get KYB Gas-a-just shocks. You wont be dissapointed. Tip: Front shocks compress them and zip tie them. Put them in place, bolt the top and cut zip tie. Bolt the bottom. Done. No need to mess with torsion bars, lol

Yep, KYB shocks ride a bit stiff.

For whatever it's worth, I had this same problem with the bushings on some Gabriel Classic shocks I installed on the front of my '63 last year. Both new shocks had the same width bushing, but it was maybe 1/16 too wide to fit. I trimmed mine down with a hand file until they matched the old...

KYB Gas-A-Just shocks make a GREAT bang for the buck! I use bailing wire to tie the front ones down short until I get them installed, then snip it and ride smooooth! I noticed a VERY OLD pair on my '83 D150 too when I first got it.

Thank you I’ll check ‘em out.

Installed one other spring and new KYB Gas Adjust shocks. I took it for a quick 20 mile shakedown from bumpy county roads to the interstate with about 3/4 tank of gas. Can really feel the difference in the ride. Not so much harsh, but firmer. Handled the bumps and corners much better. It seems...

About ten years ago I installed the silver KYB shocks on a customer's Ford Expedition. Right out of the box they appeared undersized compared to the original shocks on the truck. Within 6 months they were bouncier than the 320K mile originals that I took off. I don't like the silver KYB's and...
