Well, going on some advice from a guy in the Toyotanation forums I'm ordering 234035 and 234036 for the front. I'm thinking KYB america was being conservative and is possibly wrong, or at least wrong enough that someone with knowledge can properly modify the mounting to fit our cars. I'm gonna gamble on it, the car is booked for Wednesday. I ordered them through my mechanic so at least if they don't fit he can return them with no hassles, although it costs a lot more to do that, I'll be paying $120 per side plus labor.

I took the plunge and KYB 234035 & KYB 234036 do indeed fit on the front of my 91 Carib wagon.

I think KYB America is just being conservative so you don't end up wasting your money.

Thanks for letting us know!  It's hard enough to find parts for our wagons...

Yeah, when my mechanic went to order them he couldn't find any listings at all for AE95 suspension... here in Canada the suppliers are awful for recognizing this car. =\

He had to look under AE92/86 to find those KYB part numbers listed

This is great news.  I was told that the the 234035 and 234036 fit too high for these cars. Well, if they do fit, I can now order them and install them myself.  Great! Somehow i missed this thread, but I am glad I have found it.
