Strut assembly KYB or GABRIEL

KYB Strut assembly

as far as KYB struts go I can say the build quality is excellent. The shop I work at distributes parts to auto shops in the area, and while we have a ton of options the KYB’s sell like crazy. I asked some of the techs about them and they’ve only said great things.

Pros: excellent build quality, high sales, positive tech feedback
Vehicle: Subaru Impreza WRX

KYB Strut assembly

About 8 years ago I replaced the OEM struts on my Nissan Altima with KYB. They were still pretty tight (with no apparent leaks) when I got rid of the car about 5 years and 85,000 miles later. Granted, that mileage was probably 90% commuting on SoCal highways.

Pros: pretty tight, no leaks
Vehicle: Nissan Altima
Mileage: 136794 km

GABRIEL Strut assembly

No Monroe, never Monroe unless you need quick struts. KYB is okay but always stiffer than advertised imo. Gabriel is fine but I always aim for Bilstein or another respected aftermarket brand if I plan on keeping the car.

Pros: fine

GABRIEL Strut assembly

You’d probably do the car a disservice by fitting some of the aftermarket struts that are out there like Monroe or Gabriel, I’d recommend sticking to Honda OEM or KYB.

Pros: sticking to Honda OEM
Cons: aftermarket struts disservice
Vehicle: Honda Fit

Gabriel/Quick Struts are junk. Rides like shit, noisy, every time. If you were putting them on an old clapped out civic or something I’d say go for it, but definitely not on your Lexus.

Cons: rides like shit, noisy
Vehicle: Lexus LS
