I went with KYB OEs for my 96. Really good ride and were cheap for the set on rock auto.
Monroe OE Spectrum. It had better valving than what comes stock. Where I live it’s about 70-80 a pair so easy on the wallet and produces a nice smooth ride.
I run KYB Monomax shocks on mine. They have a nice balance of a comfortable ride and weight support for towing. As an added bonus you get a lifetime warranty with them.
Put on some KYB Excel-G shocks- avail at Rock Auto. Think I paid about $60/pair They’re Plain Jane (flat black) and the ones we got (lifted older SUV) doesn’t have the rubber boots that take on & hold water- happened several times to an old truck of mine.
Kyb on our 2010 elantra. Better than original!
KYB. Used on my gen 1 and worked great. Tried Monroe on another vehicle and they were soft and bouncy, replaced those with KYB also.
I also recently replaced the rear shocks. The rear shocks on the premium model with the adjustable controls are just stupid expensive, even from a dealer that sells at wholesale. Anyways, a GX owner found the KYB equivalent for $175 from Partsouq in Dubai. Ordered a pair plus new rubber mounts and installed those a few weeks ago.
I have the same ones on mine. they seem to do the job just fine. a bit stiffer than the oil filled sachs
The KYB shocks I ordered from them had the wrong bushings, both front and back sets.
I kinda just went through it when we got it...new shocks (not really happy with the KYB I got, and wish I got new springs, too).
