    I've run the KYB Gas-A-Just's in my Comet for over 15 years now and they're still going strong. I think they also make a milder version also. Don't remember the part #'s, but I bought 'em from Performance Suspension under the Maverick designation.
    Just for kick's I broke out the G-tech meter and went to a parking lot to see what it would pull on the skid pad. I almost couldn't believe it..... .90 and .88 on the second try. So something must be working!

    I understood that you could only get KYB's for the one end of Mavericks (front, I think). Anyone know the details on current availability of these shocks? Thanks. John B.
