Miss match shocks front to rear
« on: January 24, 2012 - 02:02:12 PM »
Summit has Edelbrock IAS monotubes shocks on sale, I just replaced my fronts with KYB’s and was getting ready to replace the rear with a set of KYB’s also, is it ok to miss match shocks from front to rear or will this cause any problems.

I don't see a problem there. You just don't want to have one type one one side. and another on the other side.

I suspect you will like the IAS better and wish you had them on the front too  :)
