Title: KYB gas-a-just shocks
Post by: eventhorizon66 on May 29, 2008, 01:28:52 pm
Who here has run in the past or is currently running these shocks on a 2WD 1/2 ton w/ stock springs.  What do you think of them?  Too stiff, too soft?  I think my GR2's are really getting weak (noticeably worse ride across rough roads, lots of nose dive and body roll, bounces two or three times before settling).

A kid here in town as some on his truck.  They didn't feel like anything special.  Actually I didn't even know he had non-stock shocks until he showed me that he could lower the ride height.

Wow I forgot about this post.  What do you mean adjust the ride height?  Gas-a-just is just a name.  They are stock replacement shocks.  The only thing special about them is they are a monotube design rather than the stock twin tube.  Thanks for the reply, though.

My bad, I was thinking air shocks.  Sorry about that.
