GREAT shock from a GREAT company!
These were a welcome upgrade for my 1964 Ford Galaxie 500, they have increased my stiffness, and made my ride more comfortable. I am in love with KYB and have them on all my cars and just ordered a set for my sons car. The are high quality and give a great feel to the road! They are the only brand I trust over OEM

Good strut for the money. Fits 1977 Buick Lesabre
Definitely an upgrade from OEM. Fit perfectly in a 1977 Buick Lesabre. Makes sure to fully compress and release them 4 or 5 times while held in a vertical position( never compress a shock horizontally) to charge them up or they will underperfom. Dont over torque the nut at the top.of the piston. Bishing ahould have a smaller diameter then the dished washer.Happy motoring.

Pretty decent for what they are.
They do fit, but they're a bit gentler than the stock ones. I'm no expert, but they could probably use a bit more dampening, in my opinion.

Excellent quality- keeps the cush adds control.
Purchased for an 80's full-size domestic land yacht (Oldsmobile) Keeps the cush ride but provides control on rough roads.

Perfect Fit
Installed well on my 1968 Camaro. Made in the USA -not China. If installing yourself, you’ll have to find your best way of pushing up on the shock (overcoming hydronic tension) to get the bolts started on the bottom end of the lower control arm. Ali, these shocks came with two nuts for the top of the shock. The second acts as a lock nut. Haven’t driven the car yet (driveway was sealed) but I’m sure they’ll feel fine.

Would recommend for an affordable replacement shock. Not too firm and gives you some nice stable handling.
