Agx ???

Agx ???
Hey guys just purchased the KYB/AGX kit from EatRice. I thought that these struts were supposed to be stiff!!!! For some reason, It seems that I'm able to push the strut-post down bear handed on any setting. I tried the same for the fronts, it took a little more effort to push, but got the same results. Is it possible that my set may be bad??? I would assume that pushing them down by hand would be effortly impossible. Any feedback would be great...
Thanks..

Okay!! I was able to do this with all four struts. The fronts took about 11 seconds to fully retract. The rears took 10 sec to fully retract. I guess this means they are good. However the stiffness issue remains the same.

Believe everyone who has posted about them being stiff. They are. If you have an SE they will be a little stiffer than OE. If you have a GLE (like me) or a GXE they will be a lot firmer.

Do this: try (ahem) "jerking off" the strut rod by moving it up and down quickly as this will simulate the oscillations of the spring. I guarentee you wont be able to.
Remember it is the spring that supports the weight of the car. The strut keeps the oscillations in check.
