Punch supposedly fit KYB AGX shocks from a SW20 into his...I tried, however, and they do not fit...total waste of $300.

I had to cut front and rears to fit my koni's in. But i used a cutter and took the top of the casing off about 2 inches down, Just below the nut. If you cut the casings you have to weld the struts in from that point though.
