My husband put these on our 2001 caravan. This all in one unit was a much simpler way to replace struts if you don't have a spring compressor.I believe it even raised the height of our vehicle a little bit. You can sure tell the difference in how this van now rides compared to the old struts. I have recommended these to my friends.

I bought 171572 L & R. For DIYers, the quick strut makes sense unless you have a spring compression tool. And even if you do, its dangerous. With not much more than the tools I need to do most work on my '01 Dodge Grand Caravan, I changed both struts in about 3 hours. The only thing I didn't like was that my original struts have round holes for two straight strut-to-steering knuckle bolts. These Monroe struts require one straight bolt and one cam bolt. Though I try to do my own work to reduce expense, I now have to take the van for an alignment as the toe-in/out needs to be shop adjusted. Otherwise, at $125 each, that's less than 1/2 the parts & labor cost quoted by my local garage.
