Found a pair of Koni's to replace my damaged Tokicos, but need a part number check. The number on the Koni struts is 82R 1730 will this fit my '84 GSL?

If nobody knows can you tell me where I might find it. I already tried koni.com, mazdaspeed, racing beat, and rotary performance, but nobody seems to stock them.

You mean it's not the right part. Well ****.

All that I am saying is that I could not confirm your part number, you can alway compare you Tokico strut to the specs of your Koni. Diameter, length, rod diameter.

Thank you, I would if I had it yet

This guy obviously doesn't know; another of his auctions is for adjustables which he says are front but are clearly rear shocks.

Stay away from those crusty struts, so old they probably will or have leaked already. The 79-80 units were different length than the 81-85 units, so that is wrong.

BTW what is that on the sticking out of the bottom of the struts? They look to short to work. Save your money and buy some fresh units.
