An Amazing Upgrade for My Automotive Suspension

After trying a few different gas shocks for my car's suspension system, I can confidently say that this one is the best. It has improved the ride quality noticeably and has made handling a dream. Installation was a breeze and the price point was reasonable. The gas shock has also held up well after extensive use. The only con I can think of is that it may not be suitable for all vehicle types. Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade…

Pros
  • Amazing ride quality and handling, easy installation, reasonable price point, durable.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for all vehicle types.

Make sure the correct shocks are in the box and all bushings are in

The shocks are nice. I received a digit in the correct part number field, but inside was an incorrect (and much longer) digit. Had to re-order this damper, the replacement damper came with no parts or bushings in the box.

Pros
  • Mono tube design outperforms all other stock shocks
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

The shocks are great just check the model on the KYB website

These are pretty good shocks for the money. I have them on a heavy Ford F-350. It took me a few tries to find the right ones. The Revain application guide didn't get me what I needed the first time. I finally checked the KYB website and found the correct part number before reordering. For one thing, the shock absorbers are now painted silver instead of white as shown in the photo.

Pros
  • High gas pressure design gives instant extra control
Cons
  • Upgrades
