KYB AGX and bump stops

Yeah, I bought a set of KYB AGX shocks recently from Custom Maxima. However, I am in Detroit right now, and they shipped to my billing address in Milwaukee. Since I am not there to inspect them, I just had a few questions for the experts out there. Do the KYB bump stops, and dust guards come with the struts or do you have to order them seperatly? Also, and I know this is a stupid question, but the Custom Maxima site said the kit includes 4 struts, but isn't it true that the maxima has rear struts and front shocks? I guess I just assumed the KYB AGX kit was a complete setup for the front and back of the max. Any help in clearing this up would be apprieceated.

Yes, it is a complete setup, front and rear, but no, it does not come with any dust boots. Have fun with the new suspension!

You're almost right. The struts are in the front and the shocks are in the rear.

Oh, I will have fun with the new suspension. Along with the other handling mods I have this will make a nice setup, just have to wait 'till spring break for the install. So, do I need dust boots, and where would I get them? Also the bump stops, those little things that wrap around the spring to prevent knocking--anybody konw where to get those? Oh yeah I have B&G springs if that helps...

the KYB polyeurethane dust boots need to be ordered separately.

the coil wrap can be purchased at any Radio Shack location.

Cattman has the dustboots for a reasonable price, they come in the small box on the right in my sig pic, that's one of the front dust boots on top of the box . The dust boots have bumpstops built into them.

Hopefully my sig pic will be changing in a day or two, my mechanic is behind and just started working on my car this morning
