Default Are KYB aka Lexus L-Tuned?

Ok guys I don't wanna open up a can of worms here and I've done my thread searches but can't find anything definitive. I've got a leaking L-Tuned shock and need to know if L-Tuned are indeed KYB GR-2 shocks rebadged. In reading threads some say yes, some say no, some say L-Tuned are rebadged Bilsteins, in other words lots of opinions but I'm hoping somebody knows for sure cuz I need to replace this leaky shock.

Also does anyone know of a good substitute for L-Tuned, similar damping and feel? Thanks for any help, Chris.

Yes, l-tuned shocks are made by kyb gr2-the silver color.
Just like l-sportline springs are eibachs.

You can check with our vendors l-tunedparts.com, tirerack.com, or tmengineering.com and they can verify for you and see if they have them in stock.
