KYB Question
I'm replacing the original Bilstein shocks with KYB's. Should I use the new bushings[front shocks] that came with the KYB's or use the larger oem's? Thanks in advance.

Use the new bushings and tighten the top nut until the bushing just begins to squeeze out of the cupped washer. The KYB bushing may be a bit softer than the Bilstein bushing and that could be the size difference.
