They weren't kidding about the high performance part

Do not install these shocks on a Jeep Cherokee unless your truck has significant added weight. With the stock heep, they ride incredibly hard, albeit with a well-made damper.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • Low Repairability

Great seller, subpar shocks

They ride worse than the old Monroe shocks I removed. KYB used to make a good product, but these and the set of Gas-Adjust shocks I put on full-size vans were no better than the shocks in the basement.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Has problems

KYB Mono Shock is the best among shock absorbers

****Update Over time, JYB shock absorbers have never loosened, so the car's comfortable driving feels like you are discharging. You feel every little crack in the road.

The *****KYB Mono Shock made my Jeep feel like a new truck with 415,000 miles and still going. 4th set of shock absorbers, but look at the mileage. The Rancho shocks were the worst I've tried…

Pros
  • Pleasing
Cons
  • Reliability

You reinforce it and the ride is basically like new. firm but not hard. (update) Handling is still better than before, but the rear has caved in again after a few months.2. I made the mistake of buying Excel-G and they didn't help such springs. they resisted the movement but did not exert much pressure. they are hard to suppress a…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
