Thinkin is about changing in my 2006 nissan fuga 2.5
Does it make sense to go with stock shocks or after market shocks.
And if so....where is a good place to get them....keep in mind lol i live in the bahamas.

Re: shocks question
I went with aftermarket shocks - KYB 349053 Excel-G and bought them from Amazon. Installation was easy - it took about 30 minutes per side. Everything is done in the wheel well and if I remember it was basically 4 bolts per side plus the one at the top of the mount. I've had them in for over six months and love the ride. Tough to compare to the OEM shocks as they needed replacing and the ride is much better after replacing them.

Re: shocks question
What do you mean? Youve got an AWD according to your sig. The kybs are only good for the rear. Is that all you replaced?kmiles wrote:I went with aftermarket shocks - KYB 349053 Excel-G and bought them from Amazon. Installation was easy - it took about 30 minutes per side.

Re: shocks question
Yes - with AWD you're limited to the OEM struts only for the front. Right now they're fine, so need to replace them yet.
