By the way they don't allow just anyone in, and then no camera's allowed
unless you're VERY special :wink:

Also, there are codes posted on the machines that show when/what vehicles they were made for.

The machine used for the front shocks is the same machine used for the KJ. "2F-02KJ7502"

There are a few machines used at JNAP, where I work, that are still left over from the first WK. Ironically, the same applies.... our front shock arm says "05WK".

Also amazing is how the WK is assembled vs. the KK. The wheels and tires are already on, but no carpet?!

So are they actually putting hood struts on the new KK's?

Not likely. They're just used to hold the hood in place until they can finally drop it, which doesn't happen until the end of the line. The hood struts are then reused... over and over and over again.
