Kyb shocks
Is anyone using these on their static drop. If so how do you like them? Reason for asking, I noticed ece shows them in their catalog on all their drop kits.

Re: Kyb shocks
KYB and Koni are both a higher end shock that produce a nice ride. Typically they will be slightly firmer which will work out nice up front and help prevent seriuos dquatting in the rear. We've been happy with both companys products over the years.

Re: Kyb shocks
I have the KYB's and dont like them on the front. I have mine dropped 2/4. the back is good but the front hits bumps hard.
I had some cheap old stock ones before and they did great. Im gonna go back to monroe

Re: Kyb shocks
You could still use Belltech shocks. Just need to tell me what size shock you need and mounting style.
