Title: KYB Gas Adjust Shocks
Post by: Tim john--- on September 25, 2008, 09:27:59 AM

Can anyone offer advice on the KYB Gas Adjust shocks.  I currently have them installed on my 67 GTO, four speed and am looking for good weight transfer for a few runs at the track.  Without breaking the bank are there better shocks to be had ? perhaps the front only or just the rear or all four corners ?  What are your thoughts and reccomendations.  Thank You.

Tim, I have 3 way adjustable shocks on my Ventura, but they are not KYB's.  I set them at 90/10 in the front and 50/50 in the rear, nearly as I can remember.  The car leaves straight and has excellent weight transfer, so I never tried changing the settings......Cliff

Thanks Cliff, 

What brand are they and do you remember the cost ? and would reccomend them particuliar units or are you after something better now that you have run these for a while.
