MattP Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Hi guys after a few hours of searching fleabay (ebay) and various other websites including KYB themselves im having trouble finding a supplier of rear kyb shocks. The problem being that I have two leaking shocks on the rear of my 1994 N/A Supra and the noise has become unbearable, and after closer inspection they appear to already have KYB Gas shocks fitted, also from what I can see some clean looking HKS stamped springs, so rather than mucking about with other brands or fitting coilovers etc I would prefer to keep things simple and simply swap old shocks for new, keeping the HKS springs as the roads near me would destroy suspension any stiffer. So after blabbering on for a while my question is this does anybody have know where I can get these supplied from? Any help appreciated Regards Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I had KYBs on my car, but the rears started knocking around 6 months after I had them fitted, so I bought some CW shocks, and they are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattP Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 I cant really comment on the quality of the shocks as they came on the car and they were burst from day one im only just getting around to buying some new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
