Thanks Dan...I picked up a brand new set (4)at a swap meet for $125.00 total and had the front installed last week...the original front's were beyond shot...what an improvement the rear Koni's are stamped with the no. 822101 and are too short. I know I am ahead of the game on cost but at this point I am just curious as to why they are too short,yet all offerings have that no. listed for them. And yes we pulled em all the way out..the original's are about 3 inches longer than the Koni's as we sat them side by side. Odd that.

Thanks for confirming it. DS
