Basically the same seller. Look at the Paypal email address and compare that to the ebayer's email address.

Which are they selling? It states GR-2's but it also reads KYB AGX Shock/Strut Features. Hmmm, I guess they are selling GR-2's and trying to make them sound better than they are.

GR-2 are a heavy duty OEM replacement with about 15% stiffer dampining. They are deffinetly a good choice for the mildly modified suspention, or to replace worn out stock struts/shocks. They are better than Tokico blues, but thats about it, but still worth the money.

So, the market for shocks in the .org is pretty much monopolized by Mike and Jessica.......
