1 Did your fronts come strapped with the nylon strapping, my backs did
2 I had some rust stains at the bottom
3 did you use the rubber bushings that came with the fronts or did you use the old ones from the Bilsteins?
Mine don't seem to be good, car bounces a lot and makes noise like they are loose. even when I jack it up.

Re: KYB's (Corvette0096)
I am sending them back, and the new ones will be here wednesday. Thanks for the response. The reason I asked about the new rubber bushings is the old ones seem to be sort of pressed in and the opening on the shock mount is larger than the bushings.
