    KYB shocks and struts for L-body

    I'm looking online for a set of KYB GR2/Excel-G shocks and struts for my Omni GLH Turbo. I can find the struts on Rock Auto, but not the shocks. I used to get these at TireRack, but they don't offer anything for an L-body suspension anymore.

    I think I can find them on Amazon, but does anybody have the part #s for these? That way I can at least be somewhat certain I'm getting the right ones. I tried getting the part numbers from KYB's website, but I can't get that to work either.

    I think I have a couple used sets of L Body GR-2 Struts and shocks in good condition.

    Re: KYB shocks and struts for L-body

    Found the four piece set on Amazon. The kit is part #609 and includes (2) 234001 struts and (2) 341037 shocks. I couldn't find the part #s on KYB's website because I was trying to see parts for the GLH, but these are the part #s for the regular base Omni, which is as close as I'll ever get I suppose.

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Does anybody have the KYB part # for the rear shock mounts for L-body (top)? I still need to find two front strut mounts (SM5001) and the strut boots (SB101).

    I don't remember KYB rear mounts. If you can't find any I have a few stock set ups from when I went with the polybushing isolators

    Yeah, I kinda forgot too. But I seem to remember a big metal cup and two big rubber donuts. It's been a long time though.

    I didn't even realize he sold those. But, I've made up my mind to keep this car as stock as possible. I even found a set of KYB GAJ shocks for L-body on eBay, but decided to just use GR2 shocks instead. I still have to remove the old shocks, but if my parts are trashed, I'll keep you in mind. I can't seem to find stock-type replacements. Thanks for the offer!
