kyb agx adjust. or koni reds??
First off, I do not want blues because i hear they are not as stiff as other shocks.
I have eibach sportlines and I need to get new shocks, (cuz i can't get the others off due to a stripped top allen key thingie) it seems people say not to get agx's cuz my drop is more than their reccomended 1.5" maximum, but then again i hear people who slam their cars with it using for example ground controls.. ebay has these shocks for 299 SHIPPED right now. also i like the adjustability with agx, koni reds sounds like a good plan too, but first i can't find any good prices, (308 at shox.com) and they don't have that adjustability. now would you guys just go for it and try the agx's? i would like the adjustability, but not pay over 500 bucks for the yellows.....

if ya need any tips on putting them in let me know... the easiest way was to use a rubber mallet to hit the ratchet or wrench to make the bolts loose... thats what i did and it makes it a ton easier.

dont hit the ratchet. the sudden impact will more likely break a stuck bolt than loosen it. use an 18mm deepwell socket with a 6" or 10" extension, and slip the combo over the ratchet handle for more leverage.

when i tried to use all my might i twisted the head of the ratchet off... now i just bang at it with a hammer and it does the trick,.
