Guess what I received today

The KYB AGX's.

I got them from cattman performance. They were supposed to come monday (according to the tracking number), but they surprised me at work today. They are getting installed on wednesday.

The REAR SHOCK have the EXTERNAL DIAL ****, which has 7 settings.

The FRONT STRUTS have 4 settings, and are adjustable from the top of the piston rod. (you have to open the hood and with a screwdriver adjust the settings)

other than that, they feel and look like they are of good quality.

thats true SYNKI,
once you get them it puts a HUGE smile on your face. After all the waiting, delays, being misinformed, etc. it just feels good.

I also got new DUST BOOTS from Brian C. Catts.

Do you guys recomend that I get new strut mounts while I am at it? Do strut mounts come as an entire assembly, or is it piece by piece?

the boot covers the shaft to keep dust and crap out of the piston.

the upper pillowball is where the upper shock meets the chassis.

YAY! Got my AGXs yesterday as well. Anyone know how beneficial the dust boots and strut mounts are? I wanna make sure just AGXs is okay or doesn't affect performance, cuz Cattman sells mounts for lowered cars and my car is lowered

my right rear is making a heck of a lot of noise. any of you guys know which piece i should replace? i've talked to courtesy nissan and cattman via phone and email. it has something to do with the rubber "rebounders." the strut shaft seems to bang on the metal bracket that attaches to the body (like it's missing a piece of something). cattman says the upper mount only includes the metal bracket with the studs on them. so i probably might not get the "highperformance" mounts. will someone please try to advise me before i order a bunch of the rubber parts that came with the stock mounts? i've been looking at it for days now. mine are supposed to come in on wednesday.
