KYB GR2 Install

Hey,
I just got my new struts, and I have a few questions. First do I need to re-use my existing dust boots/bump stops? If this is the case I'm screwed bcause my stock boots are a mess. Where would I get new boots? Thanks in advance for your help.

I had to buy new boots/stops because mine were all cracked/broken. If yours are intact you can reuse them. I believe you can get new ones at the dealer but they aren't cheap. I believe people have used ones from another car that they got from Autozone but I know little about that.

You could probably get them from DAVEB. Dave Burnette: 1-888-254-6060. Give him a call for a quote.

OT: Also, I'll be in Buffalo next month and will be going to UB. We should get a bunch of WNY members and arrange a meet while the weather remains nice.

Nice hit me up! I have lived right near UB my entire life. There is a forum from UB http://www.UBRF.orgthere are a few maximas on there. I havent been active in quite some time. I bought a house in March so I've been busy with that. Did you do your install? I put my springs on my stock struts and tried out a couple of coilover suspensions, but now I'm going to be rocking my H&R's with the KYB's so there is some grey area.

I had someone install it for me. I really am not to savvy when it comes to that sort of stuff. Still learning.
