    Paul,
    Not once. Hehe. Gusto ko lang ma experience pero sa mga sinabi mo, baka hanggang baguio nalang ako or might go straight to Apari. hehe.

    Frank,
    If ever bibili ako ng high end shocks, malamang OME ang bilhin ko. Might get a good deal.

    up ko lang post na to.

    magpapalit na rin ako ng shock absorbers ng xto ko, front and rear.
    nagpa order ako ng kyb, gas type. nagulat ako sobra mura, P880 /pc yata.
    nung dineliver, naka sticker lang yung tatak na KYB. tapos yung rubber bushings parang malambot. biniro nga ako nung nasa supplies section namin, "made in japan" daw yung kahon, pero yung shocks, baka made in Gapan.

    pano ba malamam kung orig KYB? magkano ba yung typical price nya?
    can anyone recommend a reputable shop na di peke. hirap na, i do a lot of highway driving, yoko masiraan sa gitna ng highway.
    tia

    guys,

    busted na ung rear shocks ng DMAX ko. buti under warranty pa. tanong ko lang if pareho lang ba ung shocks ng rear compared front. sabi kasi ni ARB mas ok if stock shocks sa rear then OME sa front. i'm planning to do that but i'll locate my two stock front shocks sa rear..

    2Dmax,
    ano ang figures sa mileage mo ngayon? ilang years na ba ang dmax mo? How severe do you drive? or is it normal city driving?

    fornt shocks are different than the rear shocks. stud ring ang front and shorter, rear is ring ring and longer. Mas better if aftermarket all fours, but if you plan to change 2 lang better sa front lang muna based on our experience, and leave the stock gas shock sa rear.

    thanks. cguro ganun muna gagawin ko kahit hindi ko muna pa-invert ung rear leafspring. 5,500 php x 2 pcs shocks equals 11,000 php. isa pa la pa ko budget for four shocks..
