   Theyre deffo not GrpNs. Theyre b6s, so full-length stroke (ooer) dampers. Youve been bumped,

   This is me your on about so you all know..... i do apolagise as i never actually checked part numbers..... yes i admit i should have checked myself (fail on my behalf) but i considered the previous owner to be a trustworthy friend so your not the only one that has just found this out.... i got these with the car i recently bought and was promised they were a GMC bilsteing grpN kit by the previous owner.
   
   full refund will be issued as should be expected
   and a text to a so called friend

    The b6 is the same damping rate as the B8. Its a full length damper though. If you are not planning on running lowering springs below 30mm you should be ok.
