Review on ๐Ÿ’ฅ KYB 344383 Excel-G Gas Shock Absorber, Black/Silver by Dwayne Pore

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Attention! Not made in Japan

So I bought them on YouTuber's recommendation. The essence of the sale was that it was made in Japan. That was the case in 2013. However, in 2014, KYB opened factories in Mexico and the company was very quiet about it. I noticed the Made in Mexico label on the box and studied it carefully. In fact, this is a KYB product (not a fake). KYB makes its shock absorbers in Mexico for America. The shock absorbers are much smaller than other brands and of similar quality. You won't get anything special with them. Therefore, I recommend finding cheap well-known brands with high ratings and save money. Generally they work, but I am very disappointed that they are not made in Japan, are less mechanically strong compared to the competition and are very, very expensive compared to them.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Almost never
