Default Struts

I need to replace a front strut that is bent on my 2006 XB.

I was going to replace both at the same time.

Question is, these things range in price from $40 to $120.

How much of a difference would this make?

None. Get the cheap monroe crap, really doesn't matter for your lil box. Honestly.

That is what I was thinking, it seems more about longevity than the ride. Since the box is a small vehicle and it is used for regular driving, it will not affect the ride much.

Got a $90 set off ebay with a lifetime warranty.

Thanks for the response!

What brand did you get? I didn't find any for $90 or was it plus shipping?
