Thanks Dan...I picked up a brand new set (4)at a swap meet for $125.00
total and had the front installed last week...the original front's were
beyond shot...what an improvement the rear Koni's  are stamped with the no.
822101 and are too short.  I know I am ahead of the game on cost but at
this point I am just curious as to why they are too short,yet all offerings
have that no. listed for them.  And yes we pulled em all the way out..the
original's are about 3 inches longer than the Koni's  as we sat them side
by side. Odd that.

Thanks for confirming it.
DS
