I ran KYB struts in the front of my sedan. It’s been about 3-4 years now and no problems. They still feel strong and confident and I live with Pennsylvania potholes lol
Pros: strong and confident
Cons: Pennsylvania potholes
My two cents. KYB is great, don’t buy a eco KYB get something in the daily driver to performance range. The cheap KYB are just too hard riding IMO.
Pros: KYB is great
Cons: hard riding
I have around 20k on KYB gas adjust shocks and like them alot.
Pros: like them alot
Mileage: 32187 km
With my weight of only 60kgs medyo natigasan ako sa stock shocks so i upgraded it with the softer kyb v3 which me and a lot of ab users would agree the best aftermarket shocks for its price range.
Pros: softer, best aftermarket shocks
Cons: medyo natigasan ako
Vehicle:
Honda
Do yourself a big favor and don't try to tear down and rebuild the front struts just to reuse the spring. Just buy the KYB loaded struts. It's just not worth the hassle.
Pros: buy loaded struts
Cons: not worth the hassle
The Gas-A-just model is pretty stiff, go with the excel g’s. They have a much smoother ride.
Pros: much smoother ride
Cons: pretty stiff
I put Sachs in all the Mk1 front ends that I work on, including my own. For the rear, I use KYB Gas Adjust, because I haul and tow with mine, and I want the shocks to be stiff.
Pros: stiff shocks
Kyb suck and monroe isnt too much better. I ended up paying out the nose for OEM shocks on my truck and I'm glad I did
Pros: glad I did
Cons: kyb suck, monroe isnt better
Every time I get kyb they work great for like 6 months to a year and then they suck. I put the OEM shocks on my truck cause I didnt wanna keep changing them.
Pros: work great initially
Cons: performance degrades quickly
