Big disappointment on my review.

Unfortunately, the shock didnt meet my expectations .Thanks to my knowledge gained in practice I was able to install it easily. HOWEVER, the automotive performance was greatly lacking. One positive is that it is affordable. But overall, it did not offer the smooth ride I was hoping for. Consistency and reliability are key in the suspension game, and this shock just didn't cut it..

Pros
  • Durable and long-lasting
Cons
  • Requires professional installation

Ok but should be more

I think it should have included bushings/washers for the top mount but I saw in the Q&A that they weren't included. The reason I removed the sprocket is the lack of a piston shaft cover/boot. The description says it is an OE replacement but the shaft is not protected by anything. The original had a metal cap/sleeve, but the originals will not come loose and cannot be replaced. They should at least have rubber boots to protect them from bumps. I can't find them as a separate purchase. They fit…

Pros
  • delivery was very quick
Cons
  • crumpled
