I am going with the KYB Gas-Adjust shocks, front and rear. I have some confusion over which is the correct part for the rear. I ordered a set of rears from Summit, part #KG5446 based on reading this thread: http://www.311s.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.ph ... ht=kyb5446,
but they don't seem to be quite right, much smaller than the old ones. I found another thread (http://www.311s.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.ph ... ght=kg5447) as well as information on the main site that lists part #KG5447.
Can someone who has ordered and installed the Gas-Adjusts in the rear confirm which part number they used? Thanks a lot.

Thanks Sam.
I actually found a place in town (Van's auto parts) that had them in stock, shot down there to take a look, and the KG5447 is the same size as the ones I took off the car, so I'm assuming it is the correct part.
I bought a pair and am back on schedule to put the rear end together this weekend.
