KYB Struts??What to expect??

[veritasz34]

I'm also needing to replace the struts..The choices seem to be very limited on selection..I'm not really concerned about the hard cornering ability or increased performance..I'm merely wanting a nice ride and a decent weight handling ability..I do have a few extra pounds mounted in the trunk... What is the general thoughts on these struts and should I replace everything??(mounts,bushings etc etc etc) Thanks again...In advance...

There Sweet! I would replace everything.

well, the KYB's give you a lil bit firmer ride over stock...some people think they're a lil too rough...i don't mind em though...i like em...also, when you replace them, i'd deffinatly replace the upper strut mounts on the rear!

I just did KYB all the way around on my 99 MCZ34. Handling is much improved but they are a little bit rougher than 60k old stock struts.

Should I replace it (Rear strut mount)with the KYB or just get a local parts place heavy duty replacement???

i didnt replace mine. i have no experience with different brands of these mounts, but if youre going to get the kyb's i would just get the kyb mounts too if they have to order both. also, if youre not concerned about better cornering and like the ride the way it is, i wouldnt go with kyb's.
