Shock absorbers KYB or GABRIEL

KYB are usually the best value for the quality

Usually change the whole set since the labor cost is already there to open the whole part. Shocks can get OE parts from KYB.

I like the MonoMax, good bang for the buck

I just put a full set of the kyb shocks into my vy ss. But they seem pretty good. Can't fault them.

I like KYB shocks for daily driving because they’re softer than bilsteins or rancho. I’m running Moog constant rate springs with KYB shocks and it’s a smooth predictable ride. I used them in a Pontiac torrent and wrangler with the same results.

for my 2008 Prius I did kyb all four corners in 2019 and the dust boots have now disintegrated. the shocks themselves are still fine.

They’re fine stock replacements, mine just started to leak after 4k years and roughly 20,000 miles

I've used those on several other cars and they're a solid "fine". They work, and they're not bad. Just don't expect them to be amazing.

I bought KYB shocks from a distributor to install in the struts in my '04 crv, and they lasted less than a year.

I just did my 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 and put these on the back.

The springs supposedly add about 500 lbs to the leaf springs. After receiving them, I was a little disappointed by the plastic stop at the top of the springs, and the ride is pretty rough empty. Not recommending them (only had them a couple of weeks) but I'm sure there are similar products.
