i have been using:

stock KYB (1.5 year) ---> monroe sensatrac (1.5 years) ---> Improve propex
with R3 spring (6 months) ---> monroe reflex with R3 spring (9 months) ---
> KYB front and SACH rear (1 month)

so far, the best i had is Sensatrac.

abs are due soon, how would you rate SACHS against stocks KYB?

+++

Bogus,

As for the soft type, you kids might get sick (sea sick) at the rear,
especially long distance travelling, that's why i quickly replace it..
pity them.. remmenber it's a boat ride indeed..

performax....about 60K in it...still rebounds well, but getting nyek nyek
sounds coming when going over bumps....

nyek2 might not be absobers.. changing absorbers also like gambling, if
wrong choice you got to live with it for another 5 to 6 yrs again.. to be
in the safe side get original ones.. i think the car manufacture had
cracked their heads to get the affordable, reliable and the best set up
for their cars...

According to SACHS, if you feel too much softness at the rear like riding
a boat, it could be due to you are using the model for Wira, because the
price is cheaper.
