Review on KYB 565045 MonoMax Gas Shock by Josh Thompson

I fitted these to my '04 Xterra to replace the cheaper (5 ratings+!) ones which were terrible. It made the trip that much better. There's no diving into traffic lights and forward/backward swings. The ride used to be bouncy and those shocks, along with KYB KG4026 Gas-a-Just gas shocks, kept the truck running like new. No more jumping or rattling on big bumps. Now the truck drives very well. Cornering has also improved significantly. I'm glad I spent the money on them. Its worth it. However, I have replaced the supplied bushings with polyurethane bushings. I do this for all sockets where I can.
