Dear Community
Other day I bough gas charged KYB shocks as parts of replace front suspension I brought then to mechanic and he highly advised not to install them. He motives this as gas operated shocks are too hard for rest parts of suspension and I will lose more money on long run on changing mounts and etc. He says will be much wiser to stick with original from Toyota.
I used to trust this guy and he always could find the right reason of problem with my car and fixed them perfectly. But in this case ... I am not so sure. As I know KYB makes shocks for Toyota and they would not recommend this model (I got GR-2) for Camry 97 if something would be wrong ... In result I get a little at lost and would like to ask you to share you opinion or expirince using gas charged shocks .
