    why not? because of the ear on the strut for the endlink?

    Are they longer?

    And yeah no KYB mounts.....too many negative things about their mounts.
    And don't get universal mounts

    Well what if I just got agxs for the fronts and gr2s for the back. Since there's less weight on the back, then I could save some $

    Ok well I was just going to buy the gr2 that was a complete strut to maximize ease but if I get agx's I will have to build them. So let me get this right. I need
    1. Strut
    2. Strut mount
    3. Springs
    4.dust cover
    What else?

    you can reuse your boots, should be able to clean them up.

    You need the spring insulators. Bottom for the rear and top/bottom for front.

    Just do it once and get AGX all around.

    Trust me. You will thank me later
    If I could get the koni/vogtland set up I would but this is the next best thing or equal to

    depending on the condition of the old struts some items could be re used like the seats / isolators

    cross reference the parts from rockauto to eBay. See what's cheaper

    Hmm well what springs do people recommend. I know a lot of people say canuck which I believe are ssc springs. I would prefer something not crazy low maybe 1.5 max. Zzp has new springs but there only .75 in the front and .5 in the rear. I'm not even sure that kind of miniscule difference is worth the 150$

    SSCs here on a 04. Shoulda got the 97-03s, but hoping the Bilsteins raise it a notch.

    I did have to get Vinnie spacers because of the wobble

    The white gsx didn't use rear DNA or intrigue springs
