Works as expected Unlike Monroe

KYB saves the day. I bought 2 of these from Monroe and they were made with the wrong screw pattern. Enough to ruin my day after the complete strut assembly overhaul. The KYB fitted perfectly and I was able to get the job done. I am currently buying KYB.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Safety

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits standard MR2 spring and Eibach lowering kit.

Okay so I hesitated to buy new top mount bearings for my MR2. After disassembling the rack, I found that the original parts were burned. I put them on and no dust seal is required as the bearings are sealed. Toyota didn't seal them at the factory, so they will eventually fail due to weather and wear.

Pros
  • Spare Parts
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Therefore I hesitated to buy new support bearings for my MR2. After disassembling the rack, I found that the original parts were burned. I put them on and no dust seal is required as the bearings are sealed. Toyota didn't seal them at the factory, so they will eventually fail due to weather and wear.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Repair
