American company selling American parts.
I received exactly what was advertised. The parts seemed to be well made. Fit in finish could have been better, things like paint. But at this price point I was not buying for looks. They have been installed for about a month with no issues to report. I will update in about a year from now, as only time will tell about true quality.Detriot Axel has been in for 35 years, starting in 1990. How ever the BBB claims that they have been in buisness for 19 years and gives them an F. They BBB claims that there has been 200 complaints filed against Detriot Axel; 108 of them they had failed to respond; and 13 left unresolved. As the BBB can't seem to get their facts straight, I wouldn't put much stock in their rating of this buisness. Seems like 79 of these 200 conplaints were real issues, and after doing some digging I found that Detriot Axel not only resolved the issue but also gave generous discounts as an apology. Personally I was impressed with how fast they processed the order and had it shipped. I hope to see this company come up to a better buisness rating as they are an American company. Most of their parts are made here in America. Some parts are sourced from other countries, but are assembled here. It feels good to know that my family is riding on American made parts crafted and assembled by American hands.

Great product and perfect fit
My CRV is a 2007 that had the original struts. Was looking for a full set that wasn't going to break the bank since it is now a commuter car. This set fit perfect, looked almost identical as the original. Came with some new hardware. The ride is exactly what I was hoping for. Smooth and quite. I drive an hour from the country onto the highway and into an industrial area with pot holes and busted up roads, on black top and concrete roads. The swat bar links come with new hardware so I was able to just cut the old one out and put the new ones in. These have not been a disappointment.

Very good value for the price
I bought this set mostly for the shocks / struts / springs. Fit is exact as you would expect and including new hardware is appreciated. Getting all four corners with springs pre-installed for the price of two bare shocks is a pretty amazing value.Throwing in the end-links as well is what pushed me over the edge in picking this specific item. The links are okay. They're fine a few days after install, but I'm cautious about long-term performance. Be aware that they are not sealed and will require grease (and probably a grease gun) to use them properly. This is not apparent in the product photo and not noted in the description. The grease zerks on mine were a little loose and I had difficulty tightening a couple of them down enough so that I couldn't unscrew them with my fingers. Also be aware that the new fasteners on the links are different than the stock ones you'll be taking off. Stock flange nuts have a 17mm head, but the ones included with this kit are 18mm. You'll need a box or open end wrench for the bottom (top can fit a socket) since there's not enough clearance for a socket wrench. Check your wrenches before you start working, because 18mm is sometimes excluded from a lot of metric wrench sets! You'll also probably want a set of locking thin-nosed pliers to hold the other side of the end link bolts while tightening the nut, otherwise it will just spin in place.Each shock / strut comes individually packed in its own box. Each front/rear pair is then packed in a plain cardboard box for shipping. I thought that the end links were missing from my order, but they are packed inside one of the four boxes, so make sure to check all of them before worrying.

Poor Quality
COPLETE JUNK! 2008 Honda CRV replaced all 4 Struts. They lasted about a month and ended up way worse thanthe originals. Car bounced and bottomed out! If you want to replace these again these are the ones for you.Don't waste your time!!

Not bad for the money.
Great for the money, only issues I had, were the bump stops were installed upside down so the bellows always droop down, and the pocket where the front spindle goes, was pinched too tight and the spindle would t go in without lots of persuasion from a pry bar. Road test was good, honestly I expected worse. I’m not the only one that had said something about the bump stops. Their qc needs to step up. Wasn’t worth sending back.Great thing, the sway bar endlinks have grease fittings, that’s a great plus.
