Excellent Upgrade for Suspension

These strut mount kits are a must-have for any automotive enthusiast looking to upgrade their suspension performance. The quality of the materials used ensures long-term durability, making them worth the investment .The improved handling and stability make a noticeable difference in overall ride quality. The only downside is the installation can be a bit tricky for those who are not experienced with car maintenance..

Pros
  • Improved durability with high-quality materials
Cons
  • Installation may require professional assistance for those without experience in automotive repairs

This is an improvement over what I had. My main complaints are that the installation diagram doesn't accurately show all the details and the round metal ring that came with it doesn't fit. There is a round metal ring the size of a rack post. I believe it should be used with a top spring seat but the instructions don't say for sure. I had to use my bench sander and turn the metal ring to sand it evenly until it was small enough to fit the post saddle. I didn't expect this from a company like KYB

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price
