FWIW The KYB struts I installed on my 73 were silver and the above part #s are correct. Cheers, Mike

so the result is silver eh, ok gentelmen, thanx alot guys...

Springs people.. shall I go for originals or for lowering 1" from Eibach?

as I mentioned b4, I need a nice smooth ride, not a racer.. thanx

[jackboxxx]

KYB's for sure based on what you are looking for in "ride"...my car has "lowering" springs that drops it about an inch, but the ride is still smooth,

yet when you hit a turn you can feel the difference the springs make controlling the body roll.

[BuDavid]

do they have the same stiffness as Eibach? I see many people here having eibach and seem satisfied..

I can only echo what everyone else as said. Those kybs are great. Being an old guy with a fused L5S1 and 24/7 sciatic pain I was about to sell my 73 240 that I had since 76. I took a chance on the kyb's and its simply amazing how much better they ride. I was so pleased that I ordered a set for my wife's camry. Sad to say I also agree that my new kybs on the73 are actualy smoother than a new 350. I could afford a 350 and would dearly love one but it its so rough that my sciatica is severely aggravated. I just wouldn't drive it. For you boy racers out there, more power to you, its just not me anymore. Just like I don't play tennis on 100deg days either. OTOH maybe that's why my back got messed up due to my foolish youth.

Have fun.
