KYB GR-2 Question!

I got the GR-2s from Nick Bauer, but the boxes were kind of ripped and I guess 2 of the piston bolts (1 for front and 1 for back) fell out before they shipped it. So I'm missing 1 for the front and 1 for the back, and I was wondering if I can reuse the old bolts? I think my car has stock suspension, but not 100% sure.

I need to get my suspension installed Friday so I just wanted to make sure if I can reuse the old ones. Tomorrow I'll go look at hardware stores to see if they have them, but these bolts are kind of different

I'm 99% sure you can use the bolts that are in there right now. However, I just want to let you know that your GR2s won't last more than a few months with those Maxspeeds. I'm speaking from personal experience, but it's your money and time. Also, it looks like the new badge of GR2s are softer than the old badge, because I'm on my 3rd set and I can deffenatly feel the difference between the old and new set.

Good luck.

What problems did you have with GR2's and Maxspeed springs? That's the setup I've had on since April

You can reuse the old bolts. No Problem.

I have GR-2s with H&R springs and they are great

Thanks everybody!

If the GR-2s get blown, I can get them for free again since they have lifetime warranty

I thought they have a lifetime warranty if you don't lower it more than 1.5"

Thanks guys! Got my suspension installed yesterday The rear screws were rusted to the core, but my mechanic found some used ones that fit perfectly on there so he used those. He didn't have any new front screws so he used the olds ones which weren't rust too much (only on top). Now the car runs great!
