I have KYB AGX in the front and then just Bilsteins in the rear with Steeda lowering springs. I got a crazy discount on the KYBs so that’s why I went with them lol. Feels great though
Pros: Feels great
The only major expensive maintenance I have had to do on my 04 prerunner was rebuilding the whole suspension at around 225k miles. The leaf springs were toast and the front end was starting to get there. I did everything myself and it wasn’t to crazy price wise, maybe $1200.
Pros: cheap OEM parts
Cons: leaf springs were toast
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 225000 km
Pro-V Mechanic here, usually kapag sira ang rear shock niyo po, you'd usually hear a loud bang or kumakalabog kapag napapadaan kayo sa lubac or uneven road. Another key diagnosing if whether or not sira ang rear shock or front shock niyo is fluid leakage, usually may marka ng leak shiny oil na meron kayo makikita or kapag na touch niyo yung shock niyo and found out na maitim at basa yung feeling it means destroyed na yung shocks niyo may need replacing. Same diagnostic sound na maririnig niyo sa harap. So if napansin niyo na kumakalabog na shocks niyo, better to replace them as soon as possible for a comfortable ride. Trusted Brands for cheaper alternative is Nitro-Tech But if you want something a bit balance yet good price range KYB is the way to go.
Pros: comfortable ride, good price range
Cons: fluid leakage, loud bang
KYBs are probably the higher quality shock/strut. But their bushings in their full assemblies are HOT garbage. They break apart pretty quickly.
Pros: higher quality shock strut
Cons: bushings are garbage
Vehicle:
Honda Accord
Matagtag talaga yung swift kahit naka KYB New SR.
Cons: still bumpy
Vehicle:
Suzuki Swift
I had the HD on my pickup and it was rough.
Cons: rough ride
I did KYBs and they were horribly stiffer in the springs on my Sonata (RIP).
Cons: horribly stiffer springs
Vehicle:
Hyundai Sonata
