Review on 🚘 KYB SM5058 - Mount Kit: Engineered for Superior Stability and Performance by Kenneth Witte

Revainrating 2 out of 5

They are really thick compared to the original "broken " ones in the car.

Bought for the C-pillars of a 2000 Honda CRV. The originals stayed intact, but since I bought them I was able to use them. Being brand new they are really thick. The strut nut could not be screwed on as no threads were left open when used. I even tried squeezing them with the "C" clamp to crush them. Vain. Maybe the original Honda racks had a big thread, didn't think to check it. (New KYB struts installed.) The clock was ticking and I hadn't even finished the first strut. Just left the originals in. Wouldn't take them unless absolutely necessary. Of course, you probably won't know about this until you disassemble your old rack.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared
