    Hi All! I bought 2 new front shock absorbers for my Kia Pride GTX but when I got home, I noticed that the Cylinder/Chamber caps are not identical. I checked the old shocks and they are like the one on the left. Is this ok? Should I have this replaced? TIA

    not exactly as shown but looks like the same dimensions. if it is for the same application, it must work alright.

    Yes Sir, they are of the same dimensions, just different caps. Thanks for the reply.
