Ive had the same set of KYB Excels on front/rear for the last 70,000mi. They have held up incredibly well. Stiff enough to handle payload but responsive enough to mitigate a pothole on commuter roads. I would buy again, the price is great and they've lasted years.
Owner reviews for shock absorbers
Kyb are some of the best shocks you can get in terms of quality and lifespan. That being said they’re known for being stiffer. I happen to like it since it minimizes body roll and improves handling. Better loaded performance when towing or hauling heavy too. But you will notice it ride a little harsher.
Just replaced all 4 corners on my Toyota Tacoma TRD Pro with the Westcott Designs lift and Fox shocks and the Monroe ride a million times better than that set up with 70k miles on it.
No meu carro troquei e coloquei Monroe, tem 2 anos e 17 mil km. Rodando perfeito.
Seriously though, I have Bilsteins on both my Track Car and my Jeep, and love them.
Bilstein. Worth every penny.
Bilsteins are hands down the best. Well worth the cost.
bilsteins are the best. if I did it over again, I would use bilsteins but they were 3 times the cost
Nothing wrong with profender shocks And the feedback is they seem to perform decently off-road.
Their hard parts like control arms and brackets are pretty good, but their soft parts like shocks and joints aren't very good. They tend to be clunky and not last very long.
