I recently replaced my blown stock ones with kyb agx:thumbup: .
I took the stock ones off and the piston in two of them just drop all the way into the shock.there was no gas left in them at all.

I'm not bouncing, but when the back end goes over a big
bump, it makes the kinda "pop" noise, sorta like a knocking
sound...Any ideas?

I had it jacked up on the weekend, but I never thought
of moving the spring around. What do you mean by not in
right?

When you say move them around, like rotate them with my
hand? Or up and down?
