Cheapest KYB shock retailer will hook us up.

I have been scrounging around the internet to find the cheapest KYB setup for us. I am getting the gr2 fronts, and the gas-adjust rears. In my quest, I found prices ranging from $260 shipped to as low as $162.64 shipped. Which do you think I went with...

Anyway, the KYB's were cheapest at a place that I have never heard of. http://www.franklinautoparts.com/ They are the same as www.warehouseautoparts.com.

I called and talked to Charlie, the owner, and he gave me the low price of 162.64. That is without haggling.

If enough of us buy, I bet that he would give us some group discounts, or something.

When I mentioned this site to him, he was very interested, so If you order them besure to mention that you are from thirdgen.org. Just mention that you heard about it from this site, and then he will know just how big a community we have here...

Great price for KYB shocks. I couldn't find better...

(this isn't supposed to be a plug, but he really impressed me with his price and service.)

The $162 shipped is the regular asking price, just go to www.warehouseautoparts.com and get the phone number. Call up charlie, and tell him you want the gr-2 fronts, and the gas-adjust rears.

$162 and 3 days later you will have a nice improvement to the handling to your car. I expect mine in today or monday. I had to order before the weekend....

Okay, I recieved my shocks and struts yesterday. Not bad to get them in 4 days.

They are clean, that is all I can say. I haven't put them in yet. But they delivered very promptly.

well I will sugest their prices and service to anyone who needs the kyb strut package, or anything else they carry. I have only gotten the struts, but I am sure that their service is the same for all orders...

Just wanted to update for you guys wondering...

Summit has pretty good prices on the KYBs....

$155.80 plus shipping ($8) for GR2 fronts and Gas-A-Just rears....... So $163.80 shipped.
