I did the change from KYB to Koni orange (for fox bodied Mustang) due to KYB not liking the RB spring rate. Dramatic improvement to rear suspension; and were much cheaper than the Tokico Blues (which I could not find available at the time). Another advantage is the supply of these Koni orange should not be in short supply in the future. It was direct fit, needed no modification.

I was thinking of trying the KYB AGX. Due to them having the damping adjuster in the bottom of the shock. Instead of having to remove the back plastic to adjust them from inside the car like the Koni Yellows.

Do you have a P/N?
All konis are at least rebound adjustable. Usually involves unbolting from the diff, compressing fully and twisting, hence the lack of visible ***** or screws.
They are also fully rebuildable.

The shock is KONI STR.T Rear Shock (87-93 V8). I got them from American Muscle for $57/per shock with free shipping. Shock is non-adjustable, it is direct bolt in. Some have had to file bushing sleeve, but I did not.
Might want to check around, I just searched for cheapest price I could find. Its the rear shock for Fox body mustang (87-93). Got info from others on here who have also used this shock.
Do not know exact Koni part number.
