I read from a thread before that the monroe shocks and struts are stiffer than the KYB's... just want to know if this is true or not. So if any of you guys have the monroe shocks and struts installed please let me know the difference. thanks

Ive used both...Monroe is nice oem upgrade-ish type replacement, But i would def have to say the kyb' s are def more stiff.
But the kyb's are also more cash so...like always..You get what you pay for and for those who think monroe is stiff, Ehh..thats prolly just compared to the sloppiness of a 14 year old stock set up .. IMO anyways =] --------------------  |
