I have a question with switching KYB struts for the Boge units on my front end. The KYBs came with a choice of two screw on 'keepers' for the top of the stock strut cylinders. Do I use those or the originals? The instructions that came with them were pretty limited. Thanks!

Nice graphic. What a Pandora's box of KYB hate mail I have discovered! I know they are a stiff ride but whats the big deal? Isn't stiffer better for autocross? I had these on an old volvo 122 I had and it was a reasonable ride. Anybody running KYBs that likes them?
