KYB Shocks!

Do the KYB shocks that they sell on FMS.... are they Festiva Apl. specific??

The aspire and festiva fronts are different from each other, the rears are the same. I bought mine from tirerack.com.

Matt - You sure? I kept hearing that the rears were the different ones?

well, I can get this stuff wholesale, I own a shop but I work on Honda's... but I need to know if the shocks and springs are Festiva specific or are we using other Apl. Cuz when I call TEIN or my other vendors... ythey laugh at me when I ask for festiva parts...lol

I just checked autozone and the gave the same p/n (gabriels) for the aspire and festiva rears. The springs may be different between the 2 cars.

I'm not sure.. Roger did his HW when he put together his business, they maybe from a Mazda 121 (Jap. Spec Festiva).. I know they were made for the body not sure the name, either Mazda 121 or Festiva or Kia Pride. I would try calling Roger. -Kyle

KYB has Festiva GR-2s listed as:
Front Right: 232021
Front Left: 232022
Rear All: 340009

KYB has Aspire GR-2's listed as:
Front : None listed
Rear All: 340009

So the rears are the same fronts are different.

I found all 4 KYB GR-2 shocks at my vendor in Garden Grove for $178 out the door.
