Installed on my 1986 Toyota 4x4 pickup and wow what a difference. I had the original 1986 shock absorber and with this new shock absorber it's like driving a new car again. After my last shock wore off, I was constantly struggling with bumps and small holes in the road. Before I got this shock I installed one from O'Reilly Auto Parts and it did nothing to improve my truck's handling. Now I can drive a car with one finger on the wheel if I want to. I highly recommend this shock.
