Todd SD Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hello all, I've tried finding the right shocks for my Dolphin and I'm still not sure of exactly what the right models are. Can anyone recommend the correct KYB shocks I should get for my 1984 Dolphin? Thank you so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 For some reason Shock Warehouse doesn't list the KYB shocks for an 84 but they do list them for an 86. The Bilstein shocks for an 86 are exactly the same part numbers as the 84 so I'm betting the KYB ones for an 86 will fit an 84. I mean how could the Bilsteins fit both but not the KYB. So here are the numbers for the KYB front KG5458 rear KG5438 If someone knows more about this please correct me Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WME Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Your logic is valid but the OP should check the Toyota build date on his chassis. 83 and 84 was change over year. So if he has a split year model could be out of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Check the existing shocks for a part number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd SD Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Thank you so much for these great tips. Derek you're right I need to get dirty and have a look at some model numbers down there. I've already replaced them once a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
