nissan dust boots have bump stops built into them most of the time

Um... don't lower it any more than what the road magnets do. It will suck.

Yep. You can use them no problem. You might want to cut them shorter though, so getting the front dust boots with the removable bump stops makes modification easier.

You don't absolutely need new ones, but yours are probably running pretty ragged, so getting fresh ones (OEM with the dust boots) or aftermarket (Koni) is a good idea.

so the koni bumpstops will work with the agx's right?

Roadmagnets, KYB AGXs with Koni bumpstops. Replaced all the rubber and dust boots too (took out or cut out the factory bumpstops)

I would find out the length of the Koni's you have... You should be good with 45MM. I got some 55MM and cut mine down about 1/2". I think in the 5 years I have had them on the car I have bottom out once. Mind you this was on a b14
