Smaller than the original but ok.

Much smaller diameter than motorcycle shock absorbers. I think they were still OE. seems to be working fine. Choose a double tube for the tail to avoid dents from road dirt. The back is very open.

Pros
  • Triple chrome piston rod and multi-lip seals reduce wear.
Cons
  • security.

Great replacement but gets a bit stiff after 2 days

For the first 2 days they worked exactly as I expected and made my Ford Ranger 4x4 4.0L drove exceptionally quietly. However, it does seem to get a little worse after that, but not gradually. They drive the same as they do now, after the end of the first week.

Pros
  • KYB recommended replacement shock absorbers OEM
Cons
  • For the old one

Don't settle for Monroe or any other brand

I installed them on a 2011 Ford Ranger. They replaced branded shocks from a local dealership that rebounded after a week. I've driven this truck over 1200 miles cross country in pouring rain and bumpy Louisiana roads with no problems. I also use KYB on my Lexus with no problems. These are fantastic shocks for the money at half the price of lousy Ford brand shocks.

Pros
  • Installation Type: Vehicle Specific
Cons
  • Blank
