KYB AGX Adjustable Shocks and Struts
KYB AGX is a manually adjustable shock and strut range for drivers who want a choice of damping settings. It is aimed at performance-oriented use on applicable stock-height or lowered vehicles, with adjustment made at the individual damper.
What the adjustment changes
AGX lets the driver alter damping rather than accept a single fixed setting. The range is described as offering damping rates up to 125% more than OE, a maximum figure that should not be assumed for every application or position. Damping adjustment is not the same as changing spring rate or ride height, and it does not turn an unsuitable suspension combination into a matched one.
How the controls are accessed
Depending on the model, adjustment uses a dial or a screwdriver slot. The design is described as allowing adjustment without raising the vehicle or removing the wheels. Follow the instructions for the exact part to identify the control, permitted settings, and adjustment method. Do not assume a particular click count or setting sequence from another AGX application.
Match adjustability to your suspension
For a stock-height vehicle, confirm the exact AGX application before ordering. For a lowered vehicle, also establish whether the chosen damper is suitable for the actual spring and travel arrangement; the product family’s lowered-vehicle positioning is not unlimited lowering approval. Start with the recommended setup and evaluate changes methodically. Have tire, alignment, and suspension problems addressed separately rather than using a firmer setting to mask an underlying fault.

Frequently asked questions
Can KYB AGX adjustment raise or lower my car?
No. The adjustment changes damping. Ride height depends on the spring and suspension arrangement.
Does every AGX use the same adjuster?
No. Some use a dial and others a screwdriver slot. Follow the instructions for your exact part rather than assuming another application’s settings apply.
