I have a 2004 Sunfire 80, 000 Kms. 5 speed no mods.
Thinking of getting new Monroe struts for it.
Anybody out there have Monroes and how would you rate them.
Are there better struts?
Thanks

Basically they are a good strut, good for replacement of OEM.
They're okay. I put them on my 2002. If you want to save yourself the hassle, you can buy their "Quick-Strut", which is the full assembly: new strut mount, spring, bearing plate. All you have to do is unbolt the old assembly and pop in the new. I did that because I had a bad strut mount, and it really made the job much easier. You used to be able find them for around $140, though they recently came out with an economy version, and the price on the original "sens-a-trac" model is going up....
If you want performance-oriented shocks/struts, there are much better out there (KYB AGX, Koni Yellows, Tokico D-Spec or Hp Series, etc.), but for OEM replacements, Monroe are a good choice.
