Big difference! - Shock absorbers, struts and suspension

What a beast! Much stronger than KYB Excel. I ruined 2 new tires due to bad balance and shock absorbers that don't do their job. 2 new tires (again), monomax shocks and balance balls did the trick! No more trouble. It is again possible to drive at high speed without damaging the tires.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Low repairability

KYB 565048 MonoMax Heavy Duty Mono Tube Shocks

KYB 565048 MonoMax Heavy Duty Mono Tube Shocks A great product at a great price and they work as well as they look. Installation was quick. They were installed on a 2002 Chevy S-10 ZR-2 4X4 in the photos (front). Also on the back (just no pictures). I highly recommend this product. Raging rat

Great hits, especially at this price

Great hits. They fit perfectly on my 2002 S10 Zr2. The truck has clocked up 182,000 miles and feels like new again. I can't believe what a difference. Nice, confident ride (but not rough) and no more nose diving when I hit the brakes. An added bonus is that they look very sharp out there, peeking out from behind the front tires.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

02 Chevy Blazer front and rear shock absorbers

The factory shock absorbers have been replaced with these KYBs, they are stiffer than the OEM shock absorbers, after 500 miles they loosen up a bit and adjust, the ride is stable , I haven't ridden on the road so I don't know how they stand up to this application. I drive mostly on the Autobahn so far, so good I've got 13,000 miles on them and the ride seems comfortable. the price was the best i found and fast shipping, i like to order from revain, the website works well and i can find what i…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some bugs

Great performance - spares

If you drive a lowered Volvo 240 you need rear shock absorbers! Although originally intended for Chevy trucks, they are the perfect length and travel for the rear of Volvo 240 series low-rise models. They control springs in the 200-275 lb/in range with no problem, unlike stock Volvo Shock absorbers designed for springs are half as much. One caveat is that the lower mounting bush is a size larger than the Volvo. You might be tempted to get a different size bushing kit from KYB to squeeze out the

Pros
  • good stuff
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
