Rear strut is leaking, so I'm heading down to the Quantico Auto Hobby Shop to replace them tomorrow with new KYBs. Doesn't look like the KYBs came with rubber covers or new bump stops.

Should I just reuse the old if they're o.k., or should I plan on replacing with new ones? If so, are they vehicle specific, strut specific, or generic? Something any auto parts store would have? I ordered the KYBs online because no one had them in stock around here.

Thanks guys.
