Default Strut servicing

Got some KYB AGX adjustable rear struts bought as nearly new from fleabay (to straight swap my old jammed rusty pair) , whilst they look new they are not in a suitable state to use, one has lost oil so wanted to get them both checked out\serviced although I am wondering if it's cost effective. I'm around West Yorkshire.

Were reduced to £475 inc delivery - if there's any left?

Do you need agx? Excel-g (£250-300) = agx on setting 2 front 4 rear - so fine, if paired with stockish rate springs.

Thanks for the offer, to answer your question no i don't really need the agx, it was more that I thought I had a bargain on the agx's and they were a straight swap with what's already on the car. I've spoke to you about springs recently and think i'm going to refresh my whole suspension set up in the new year so will be in touch for a price on excel-g's and some springs. I've got the car booked in for welding next week so will see how much cash I have left, :-( cheers

I'm very biased:
P11L springs, inc matching bump stops/dust boots for the excel-g. Wheel width, et and tyre size play a part in bump stop selection - so I'd need that info.

Cheers for the info, I'll be in touch in the new year, ;-)
