Hello
Thanks for the donation.

It is always best to replace components with the OEM Dealer part. Not a OEM parts store. With suspension parts, you never really know how it is going to ride on your specific vehicle, so if someone says "I think KYB is the best riding struts. I had them on my Ford truck and it rode GREAT!" For example, . That doesn't necessarily mean that the KYB struts for YOUR vehicle will ride great as well.

Hope this helps.
Thanks for using 2carpros. Com!
