Your Comments About Brands Of Shock Absorbers?

Likes and dislikes? Please elaborate. The last shock absorbers I purchased was 14-years ago. Maybe things have changed?

  • I love my KYB Gas A Just.

    They ride firm, perhaps too firm for some.

    The non 'Gas a Just' KYBs are not the same, but are often lumped together.

    KYB Gas-A-Just are half the price of Bilsteins.

    Bilsteins as well. put them on my 04 silverado at about 10K miles after 150K miles still fine. Stock shocks were valved for comfort and unloaded ride, not towing, Bilsteins rode as well unloaded and way way better towing.
    When we got a 2015 Denali, Bilsteins when on at about 500 miles, as soon as I could get them ordered.

    Also run Bilsteins on both my mercedes, with excellent results.
  • Bilsteins for sure. Lifetime warranty (limited) and excellent performance. Highly respected throughout the auto industry.
