Strut assembly KYB or Monroe
I replaced mine with KYBs all around last year. Rides excellent and doesn't feel stiff. Reused the springs.
Fair price for paying a shop to replace your OE struts with Monroe OESpectrum quickstruts.
I prefer KYB but I have used Gabriel and Monroe with good results. The KYB’s had a noticeably better ride than the other choices.
Monroe is usually pretty good aftermarket but Motorcraft is owned by ford and is likely the most similar to what’s already on the vehicle for ya. It’s no race car or anything I would say the Monroe quick struts would be just fine! They’re still a big brand and for stock replacements I’ve never had a complaint
I’ve had good luck with KYB.
When I replaced the struts on my C30 I went with KYB and so far they're performing great
210 dollars profit on the kyb struts.
I just installed KYB Strut-Plus on a B16 Sentra. None of that stacked bellow/bumper garbage that you get with Monroe. The KYB mount threads (8mm) look like shit compared to OE. The included screws do not appear to be strengthened. I would never use the Nissan torque value of 21 ft/lb with an aftermarket job. I chose 15 which still felt risky.
I’ve had enough bad experiences with Monroe that I won’t use them on any vehicle.
I bought KYB struts and a year later the boot was ripped wide open and the strut is exposed.
