KYB Agx help

[SwazzWicked]

So the last few days I have been changing the stock struts/shocks and springs on my 90 Eclipse gst. Fronts went on fine, but when doing the rears I noticed that the stock bushings on the AGXs where it connects to the trailing/control arm are wayy bigger than the bushings on the stock strut. In my haste to get them installed I followed the advice of someone who said to torch out the stock bushings and buy new prothane? bushings for the lower. But after cutting out the old bushings I can't seem to find the correct bushings to be installed. Any help will be appreciated. I apologize for posting in the wrong area, but I'm probationary and can only post in certain places. Thanks in advance guys.

I think you might have the same issue I'm having, but reversed. I bet you have the AWD struts. The I.D. is much larger on the AWD vs FWD based on you saying GST in the post above. I was sent the small I.D. hole FWD struts and cannot install on my AWD. See the picture I am attaching. Hope this helps.

That.. Is exactly what the issue is it would seem. Too bad I torched out the damn bushings, I'd just trade with ya! Thanks for the help. Wish I had asked sooner, before I destroyed the damn things. Another $100 down the dsm worm hole! Haha

I'm going to attempt to have the warantee honored even tho I butchered the bushings. I'm currently waiting for a reply from the seller. But as I said, I won't know for atleast another day.
