i know 4 people who have to tegs and civics and they all had those on there car with coilovers and the went a little more than a 2 inch drop and the seals broke in them they do not have strong seals so they all switched to the tokico 5 ways and never had a prob

i was gonna get the agx's until i heard that the seals suck inside them so i went the the 5 way tok and i love them there sweet

just wanted to let you know to be carefull if u have the agxs

 

My friend has been complaining that his AGX's are clunky as of recent !

My AGX's are holding up well with a 2.5" drop... same time frame as my friend.

 

Any shock's seals will bust if they are bottoming out.

 

my agx's feel like **** in the back... I just put them on about 4 months ago and already the rear of the car feels 2 years old, tons of slop and it just started. I have about 2.75" drop.

Over time, just about any shock will probably fail with an excessive drop. So many people have the thinking that "lowest is the best and coolest" and don't care about ride quality, which gets sacrificed with lowering too much. It kinda defeats the purpose of buying nice shocks when your ride is going to be **** anyway. IMO.

 

You think maybe that's why the warranty card says something along the lines of:

KYB AGX shocks are designed for vehicles that are operating at stock ride height. Operating these shocks at a lower ride height can damage them. This warranty is void if the vehicle is lowered more than 1.5 inches.

So, anyone who uses them on a car lowered beyond 1.5 inches is asking for blown shocks.

Duh.

 

exactly, the agx shocks arent to be used for more than 1 3/4 drop i beleive.
I have no problem on my car with my prokits

 

same here - no probs w/ eibach prokit
