5.0 Gen KYBGR2s on a 5.5?

Can this be done? I noticed that KYB has different part numbers listed for the 5.0 vs. the 5.5 GR2 shocks. I gave KYB a call and they told me that the only difference between the two were the sway bar mounting points. From what I understand, the sway bar does not connect directlt to the shock.. let me kno if i'm wrong.. but I would think that these shocks would be ok on a 5.5. What do u guys think?

Why not just buy the 5.5 gen GR2's. It's been stated that if you install the 5th gen GR2's, KYB will not honor the warranty if they go bad due to improper installation.
