Anyone ever tried this brand of shocks? I've ran Monroe and Gabriel and haven't been real impressed with either brand. I ordered a set of those shocks and they're actually cheaper than Monroe or Gabriel and they claim they're much better. We shall see...

I use paccar on my kw ... Its hit or miss .. once i replaced one shock right after 1 month due to the leak , but mostly they work fine for me

There used to be Fox shocks with long warranty/guarantee (maybe 3-5 years I forgot) that were around $250-350 a pop. I thought about trying this but maybe next time.

I get the paccar ones and I’m not sure they do anything. At least I never see them leak. I just replace every year.

Well initial reaction to the shocks is, they're shocks. Lol. Seen to be a little heavier than the Gabriels I took off. Not sure that means anything. Got them swapped out so in a week or so when I go back out well see how they do. Gonna be hard to get a real comparison though since the shocks they replaced were totally worn out and probably about 6 months overdue to be replaced. My main thing is how long they will last and only time will tell that. On a good note, I paid $265 for all 6 shocks and I ordered them on Friday morning and they arrived at my house on Monday about noon. Stay tuned for more...

I use to buy Gabriel, Monroe’s thru the years, even bought a pair of high dollar “Koni” shocks back in the days for my COE, made a big difference. But now I’ve found out that “Paccar” shocks last longer and have a 2 year warranty compare to one mentioned and cost the same. So it’s Paccar shocks for me.
