Yes, the Cressida shock will work just fine. They are available online from http://www.shockwarehouse.com for $26.07 each with free shipping.

Napa Online also has the shocks, but they are $31.99 plus tax and shipping.

 

i'm on this !

 

....no free shipping

 

Just so you know the Monroe 5870 has its own dust cover on it. It does not look like the 5987 which is similar in look to the stock rear kyb's.

You don't have to reuse the gravel cover with the rubberon top. I did not mount a bump stop on this rear shock because i don't know how it would mount. Maybe dremel the welded on monroe cover off??

I just installed it two weeks ago and i doubt i will ever bottom out the shock. Even with the car full of passengers ... i think i still have 5-6 inches of shock travel remaining.
