Ordered my KYB's (and associated parts) today, along with B&G lowering springs. I will update with pics when I get it all installed.

New shaft is WAY smaller. Different design though so its not really apples to apples. I run mine on a 1 in the front and a 2 in the back. Ordered everything but the sorting for an 02 grand prix. Springs are GXP Canuck springs 2.0/1.7 (iirc). Could be a little lower in the rear for my liking.
