Perfect Fit
Unity® 11861 - Front Driver Side Complete Strut Assembly
Struts came packaged well and with no damage. Installation was a snap. You do not have to remove brake disc and caliper if you are careful to secure them to prevent the axle from disengaging in the CV joint. By carefully using this short cut the right side took an hour and the left about 40 - minutes. Otherwise you have to remove the caliper, and remove the axle nut to allow the axle to stay in place when removing and installing the struts. Struts have a metal bracket to hold the ABS wire - some manufacturers do not have the bracket.

I had no installation issues. Great complete strut for the money! It works properly and the car sits a bit higher than it did.

The product arrived quickly in a couple of days to my PO BOX, well packed, detailed instructions. I did the mounting of the struts kit myself, very quickly no hassles, all holes alienated neatly, been using the product over a week, no rattles or noises, I did the repair, at just the fraction of the cost of a Sachs brand strut assembly. I highly recommend CARiD.com!

Bought the strut a couple months ago. Finally got around to putting it on last week. After getting it installed, I was able to see it was assembled wrong at the factory, through no fault of CARiD. Not real happy. Have to take it off to get it straightened out.

I was skeptical at first, but I put these on my 2002 Cavalier and they were a perfect fit. Easy installation besides hard to get to spots in the back of the car but other than that, very satisfied! Would buy again
