front struts

[yohman2319]

is there any after market front struts for my 07 aveo? im gonna drop it once i get the front struts replaced but need a cheaper way than getting struts from the dealer. i thought i heard something about kyb making some but i wasnt sure.

this is going into the FAQ in this section:

KYB GR-2

~Part Numbers~

333417 right front

333418 left front

343423 back

The cheapest one I found was for $75.97 each @ AJUSA.com. Just type in the part numbers, 333417 and 333418. FREE shipping and if you live outside California, you don't have to pay tax. As far as I know, they only fit 2004- 2006 Aveo.

2004-2009 suspensions have the same strut design, but other changes were made in the suspension (spring rates?)

In 2006, the Aveo got a stiffer sway bar. But as far as spring rates, I believe they stayed the same.

i remember it was something "stiffer" but wasn't sure.

I like stiff

[yohman2319]

so it would be pointless for me to order these? i really dont feel like paying a bunch of money to get oem ones from the dealer.

[Petrified.Rabbit]

no they are a direct replacement for you while a little more performance oriented and cheaper.

[Petrified.Rabbit]

in other words get them.. (though i should include that after hitting submit)

[yohman2319]

[yohman2319]
