Disappointing Performance for Automotive Suspension

As a result of my tests, I determined that this shock absorber did not live up to its advertised capabilities .While it was easy to install, the performance was subpar and did not improve the ride quality of my vehicle. The only POSITIVE aspect was its affordable price. However due to its lackluster performance, I do not recommend this product..

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • Slightly more expensive than other shock absorbers on the market

High Hopes, Low Results

Based on our own experience with this shock absorber, we were extremely disappointed. The ride was rough and bumpy even on smooth roads... It didn't seem to handle automotive suspension well at all. The only positive is that it was relatively easy to install. However, the cons far outweigh this one pro. Overall, we would not recommend this product for anyone looking for a reliable and smooth ride..

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • Not suitable for vehicles with high-performance suspension systems

breakage of the spray paint.

Ordered two and received two different colors. Red and black. Disappointed in that. Revain offered a replacement but couldn't get it to me fast enough. So 3 stars to both the manufacturer and Revain for this order.

Pros
  • Nitrogen gas charge for superior response and constant control
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
