i called like three different auto parts stores(autozone, kragen, pep boys)
today and they told me that they didnt even have shocks and struts
for my scion xb only place that had them was Discount Tire and they said
they would install monroes with alignment for about $520
is that too much??
what year echo to be specific???
are all model year suspensions the same??
do you have to make any major modifications to fit echo struts??
what about for rears, do you use echo shocks too or are they different??

Echo front struts will be 1/2 inch shorter. Get the Monroe xB specific ones (72245) and they are exact replicas but ride so much smoother then the stock KYBs.
Discount tire cracks me up. 520 with an alignment??? Such a deal.
$520!? They have great deals on wheels and tires but man, that's asking an awful lot.
There's no modification needed for the echo struts. I got them because the xB struts weren't out yet. From what I hear and read, they ride just the same - smoother and more comfortable - but the echo struts will lower the front by 1/2in.

Dont ask them for scion struts, just tell them you already have the monroe part #. They will find them that way, and they are special order, so it will take 24 hours to get them from their main warehouse
