KYB AGX Question.
OK, i ordered some KYB AGX from ebay, received them, but 2 of them don't have any way of adjusting them. Can someone who owns them help me out? i thought they were adjustable?

What year, for what car? Do you have pics of them? The AGX's that I used to have ad adjusting ability on all four of them. They adjust at the top of the shocks.

i ordered mine off ebay.. all four have 4 way adjustable ***** on the top of the piston rod that have to be pushed in and turned then released..
other models have **** on side.. and i believe the ones that dont have ***** are factory replacements

Re: (bushfreakz)
it sounds like you have the right stuff
front and rear shocks are different.. plus the fronts you must note when you do them.. that there are brake lines that srew into the shock.. so there is a right and left to them..

That's pretty much how the bottom of the shocks are supposed to look. I think you got the right ones. The ones that you keep saying that are missing the "forks" go in the front, and the ones with the "forks" go in the rear. Why don't you just show us a picture of the actual ones you have?
Do two of your shocks look like the one in the picture here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...33590

Yeah, you use the existing forks for the front.
