experiences with monroe sensa-trac struts?

[lefthandedgod]

Hello all. I've been searching and have found nothing about these struts in use. They, in theory, should be a good middle ground between the KYB and KONI struts. I was wondering if anyone has used these with any lowering springs and how they would compare with the KYB's and Tokico struts.

Thanks!

The sensatracs are supposed to be an OEM replacement with specialized 'road condition sensing' valving. It's supposed to be Monroes better line, and I believe usually comes with a lifetime warranty, but I don't think they were intended for lowered applications. I could be wrong.

i had a set of monroes sensatrac with lowering springs, they were supposed to be new when i bought the car, so i just threw on some eibachs, and within a month both the fronts were pissing oil out of the seals. NOO good for lowering applications, but a decent oem replacment.

Goood strut for the money kyb gr2's

I have them on my RS and have had them on there for 3 years. Its also lowered 2". No problems..

Just ordered a KLZE w/ 5spd tranny complete, now I need to find some springs. Looks like H&R or ST would be the best semi-hard springs. Pics will come!

Just so you know, sensatracs are probably also going to be more pricey than Ford Racing Tokico ZX-2 Struts.

I have the Monro Shock with ST springs On my gs. I've had that setup for about 4 yrs and no problems.
