What else do I need with KYB AGX?

After finding out that the courtesy B-pipes are backordered till JANUARY, I canceled that and ordered a set of KYB AGX. My question is, what else do I need or should I get? I will need new boots right? Where should I order those? Anything else? Thanks in advance, just looking for opinions here, I DO NOT want another squeeky suspension...

order from cattman, good deal and fast really fast delivery.
well you dont really need anything with the struts but if your boots are worn out it'll be a good idea to change em with your agx's

If you order from Cattman, you can get the boots for an additional $50 or so. I just ordered my boots from the Nissan parts. You may even want to call Courtesy Nissan and see what they sell these for.

Are you lowered? If you are lowered, you may want to buy some loom (19m) from a Radio Shack and wrap it around the top & bottom of the spring to prevent noise. We have a stick in teh 4th gen forum about eliminating suspension noise.

I think there is a GD that is tryin to happen for the AGX, if not, you can call Phuong (got rice?) or Cattman for a great price.

BTW-I coulda told you that the Courtesy B-pipe was out of stock.

I'm lowered with H&R's, but I'll put the wire loom around em' anyway. I can't understand why those boots are so damn expensive though! My old ones are trashed, so I guess I'm forking out some more $$$. Thanks for the heads up the B-pipe focker! Got my hopes up and everything...
$390 shipped, already ordered.

A dust boot is a cover around the shocks so dirt/yucky stuff doesn't get into it. I got 4 from Cattman for $60 shipped. I also got the strut bearings (2 for the front) when I had my AGXs installed today.

make sure you have all the boots with bumpstops built in. take them from the old shocks or buy new. make sure you have the rear shock bushings and cover washers that mount below the shock mount. the stock ones are hard to remove. if you need more details email me.
