Must be 18 years old worn part.

Installs like a champ and eliminates front-end clatter. Connected to the recommended KYB rack for our 2003 Subaru Forester XS.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Security

Worth it if you already make struts

I reused my front cylinders when I made the front struts. I bought them when I replaced the regular racks with KYB. I didn't realize how rusty and decrepit my bearing mounts were. Now I'm tempted to go back and replace the front ones again!

The parts fit and are stiffer than the Subaru OEM part

The strut mount is fine and fits the rear of my 2004 Subaru Impreza 2.5TS. The KYB part appears to be made out of a tougher rubber than the Subaru part that came with the car. Not sure how they relate to the Subaru Group-N strut mounts. Nuts for securing the studs are included but the strut boot shown is missing. To be fair, the product description says nothing about the fact that a protective cover is included.

Pros
  • Shocks, Struts and Suspension
Cons
  • Some issues
