IML: Where To Buy KYB

["Eric" <gearhead@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I got mine from a local parts house called Baxter Auto Parts, here in 
Portland, Oregon. They were about $30 a pop, it seems that most all KYB's 
are about $30 a piece. If you call around to some local parts houses in your 
area, one or more should be on the retailer's list. You could call KYB back 
and ask who their distributors are, then call the wholesalers to see which 
retailers are in your area. Also, you might try some of the suspension parts 
sellers on the Imperial website's parts listings at

Thanks to Larry, Steve B,Elijah,Dupont & Eric about all the info in trying 
to find shocks for my : 61 " Imp. So... I called the # of KYB on the IMP> 
repair page and was told that they were the mfgs. not the retailers. Asked 
for a retailer near me, which was Fresno Decker Auto. Called & they informed 
me that I would have to make the trip to Fresno [60 mi.one way approx ], as 
they did not take any credit cards, only CASH if your out of town, plus they 
would rather not take check either. I have never purchased anything in my 
life that was so hard to buy or had to drive 150 miles for a new product 
from a known company.If it weren't for all the good responses I read from 
you folks I would have bought them at the local Kragens or whatever. I 
couldn't find a #  that some of you people had for KYB. In conclusion, I 
guess thats what I'll have to do. Hope all interested in buying have a 
better time of it than I. JOHNL
