Review on KYB SM5206 - Mounting Kit by Roberto Nastanovich

Revainrating 5 out of 5

2000 Ford Focus SE with KYB 343429 Excel-G Shocks

Benefits: Essential for bare KYB shocks. They are a perfect match for the KYB 343429 Excel-G shock absorbers. This kit, shocks and adjustable upper arms really breathed new life into the rear of my 2000 Ford Focus SE which had 175,000km of OEM rear suspension parts. Cons: Wasn't free, KYB sucks doesn't automatically include this kit with their shocks. The instructions were terrible as they didn't apply as the instructions were for rack installation and not shocks as another reviewer mentioned. Other thoughts: I've included a picture for the location of the parts for those who need help after purchase as the instructions are utterly useless. The price seems a bit high considering the kit is for the side only. However, quality details are very important.

Pros
  • High quality replacement strut mount
Cons
  • Negative impression
