At an absolute minimum, Sachs shocks are worth the money, they're perhaps the one thing that has the biggest impact on ride quality. Being a more complex part than control arms and such, a cheap brand isn't going to have anywhere near the same ride quality.

Pros: biggest impact on ride
Cons: cheap brand bad quality

I've had them for about 1,000 miles or so. Do they "work miracles?" No, but they are a marked improvement over the OEM Sachs. They are quite firm when cornering and braking, but compliant over rough roads at normal speeds.

Pros: marked improvement over OEM
Cons: quite firm
Mileage: 1000 km

We also have really bad roads. Stock ride height and stock shock absorbers work very good. The factory specification is oil in the front and gas in the rear. We usually use Sachs on our cars.

Pros: work very good

It is quite a hassle to change the fronts (the rear shocks however are a joke to change) so I would personally just go with the OEM = Sachs--as I did two months ago--if you can afford it and/or save up for it.

Pros: OEM quality, easy rear installation
Cons: hassle to change fronts

Muitas casas não gostam, aparentemente, porque é chato ganhar dinheiro com o cliente que conhece o suficiente para chegar lá com pastilhas ATE, discos Zimmermann Coat Z, casquilhos e braços SKF, amortecedores e kits de embraiagem Sachs e por aí adiante

Pros: material bom
Cons: material linha branca

cuando compré mi 330i tenía el amortiguador trasero del lado del conductor cagado. Más allá de que acá te matan con el precio de cazoletas y amortiguadores (hablamos de OE, o sea Sachs, etc.) no se consiguen los guardapolvos ni los topes superiores.

Cons: no se consiguen guardapolvos

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.

Pros: add 500 lbs
Cons: ride is rough
Vehicle: Dodge RAM
