The spring on the driver side of my nephew's 2003 Camry was found to be broken awhile back. In hindsight, we should have just replaced the spring but since the car had almost 90k miles at the time we decided to replace them and installed a set of Gabriel Ultra ready-struts. Since installing them there is a persistent clunk...more noticeable on the driver side than the passenger but noticeable on both. We have checked everything else that could be causing the noise...sway bar and control arm bushings, ball joints, etc. Everything is tight and in good condition ( the noise didn't start until the strut assembles were installed). We thought the Gabriel mounts might be the culprit and installed new (other brand) ones which seemed to help some but there is still clunking. All the nuts were tightened to spec (including the center top nut which my research indicated could be a problem if not torqued adequately). At this point I want to help the kid out so have offered to buy another brand to install (he's a poor college student). I'm considering either Monroe or KYB. Although I've used the inserts from both on my vehicles in the past, I am reading about their ready-struts and they are a mixed bag. Some claim both brands were OK...others complained of noise afterwards. At this point I'm deferring here for help. So...any personal experiences, good or bad with the Monroe or KYB's?... appreciate any advice...
