Quick is Right
First, let me say that I'm not someone who does alot with their car. Change the oil, filters and spark plugs is about all I do on my 2008 Cobalt. But I noticed my handling was going and my tire would chirp taking a turn in town. At 110k miles (25k/year) I needed to do something. I asked some people and they all recommended the monroe quick-strut assembly. Wow! This was easy. Six bolts per side and the job was done. Save yourself some coin and do it yourself. I saved $300 by installing these assemblies. And that includes the alignment. I noticed after the installation that the front of my car seemed to sit up just a bit. I was told by some 'wrenchers' to drive it for a few hundred miles and then get the alignment so that the springs can settle. The car now drives like a dream, no tire chirp, or sloppy handling. Woo-hoo! Just make sure you have the right tools before you start and have some good penetrating oil to loosen up those tight and rusty bolts!

Great 4 a year
If you are putting this on your car, you will love the improvement. But it will be short lived. Spent over 400 in struts and shocks. Lasted over a year and a half. No way to make 50000 miles on these. Very soft
