Do I have to use my stock front shocks or can I just my tokicos? I know someone mentioned some thing about part of them being shaped differently. My stock shocks have only 5000 miles on them, but the tokicos have close to 30,000 miles on them.

Thanks

Nope, you need the original stock front shocks. The bottom of the Tokico blues are more rounded, and the mounting washer (thick and contoured) that Koni gives won't fit them. Also, there are locating tabs inside the top of the stock front housing that the Koni inserts uses to center itself and make it fit tightly. Tokicos may not have those, so the install may not come out right (or fit at all).
