Subject:      KYBs - why no GasAdjust on the front?
Comments: To: vanagon@vanagon.com
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII


After 10 days of backroad driving on my new KYBs, I must say they are much
better than the worn out stock shocks.


But... The rear of the van is noticeably higher than the front, both when empty
and loaded. Also, the fronts can be "bottomed out" quite easily on rough roads,
but I don't recall ever feeling like the rear end was approaching the spring
stops. I suspect this may be due to the front having a cheaper KYB GR-2 shock,
instead of the GasAdjust used in the rear.


So, can anyone tell me if I can get GasAdjust for the Front also, and if so,
would this make a difference?
