i bought the rear gr-2 struts and am looking for the front. i was wondering how difficult it was to interchange the stock strut with the kyb gr-2 cartridge. or, where could i find some koni front struts. thanks

Air tools. You do need them for this project. Its almost impossible to get those 2 large bolts on the steering knuckle off without an impact wrench. Just a little FYI for you Do-It-Yourself'ers. In fact, dont get scared if you dont have this tool. If you doing this type of project, I'm sure you'll need to just an air tool again. Its not a bad idea to go purchase one from a tool store (not walmart.)
 Again good luck guys.
