Had to replace these struts twice. The first set lacked the quality of the Monroes and were about the same price. Out for the box these were better. On the first set the steering plates failed along with other problems with the springs and rubber parts.

Parts came fairly quick. They were a little harder to install than I thought. Made a huge improvement in ride. Well worth it. A lot cheaper than if I bought them locally.Best Deals for Monroe 271670 Quick-Strut Complete Strut Assembly
Installed on 1999 Chevy Venture LT. Struts were a bit taller overall than my OEM takeoffs, and I had to really push down hard on lower suspension to get the lower bolts to align. After installing, van height increased front-end height about an inch, struts are firm.Honest reviews on Monroe 271670 Quick-Strut Complete Strut Assembly
Did this make a difference or what in the way my '97 Chevy Venture handles and rides. I was told that the passenger side front strut bearing was bad. So I figured why not just replace the whole strut with quick struts. This is the only way to fly if you're going to replace your front struts. Saves a lot of time by going with quick struts. I bought the pair for both sides. I highly recommend these quick struts if it's time to replace your front struts.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Monroe 271670 Quick-Strut Complete Strut Assembly
I wrote a good review when I first got these. I got an email from amazon that said a customer thought my review was helpful. I came here to update my review. When I got them, It looked a little funny where the upper spring seat met the bearing. I put them on anyway because I have always used Monroe shocks at my shop and on my vehicles. These rode great. After a few months, it started making a popping noise when turning. I looked at it and the rubber between the spring and the bearing was all torn up and the spring had shifted off center. I emailed Amazon and they sent me a new set. The new set looks the same as the first. I thought it was an isolated incident until this point. The yellow bearing housing was warped because the oval design of the spring only makes contact with bearing in a couple places and has a rubber spring seat between it. I called Monroe and sent pics and they said they would check their stock and see if they can find a solution and get back with me. After a month,I hadn't heard from them so I checked back and got, "We're still checking on it". Another month went by and I left a message for the same tech support guy to call me. I never got a call. I called back a few days later and talked to him. I told him I want a refund so I can try another brand. He said he'd call me back in 3 days with a response from his boss. No call. I called back a few days later and he said return them to Amazon for a refund. Now I need to send back 2 new struts and 2 old struts and buy some from KYB. Monroe's customer service sucks. I've been messed around for 3 months now by Monroe. Amazon has done me right so far. We'll see if I get refunded.Update. Trying to get the idea across that I will be returning 4 struts in 3 boxes was as frustrating as playing Abbot and Costello's "Who's On First" skit. But I think we got it figured out.
