KYB GR-2 struts?

Post by renchjeep »

Wondering if anyone has experience with KYB GR-2 struts? I just bought a pair of fronts for my 94 SE, and they seem to compress too easily by hand for my liking. I expected them to have a bit more resistance on compression. Would hate to install them and find out that they are crap! Anybody running these? I am hoping I didn't waste my money...

I had a set on my '86, I like them, a lot stiffer than stock was.
