SS/TC strut ???

OK. I went to gmpartsdepartment.com to see how much the SS/TC shocks and struts would cost. My question is... What is so special about the right strut to make it more than 2X more expensive than the left strut??!!

Heres a link to the site.http://www.gmpartsdepartment.com/par...08&catalogid=1

Sorry if this question has already been posted.

I'd love to know myself.

if you're looking to buy SS/TC struts and shocks ,almost half the cost is just for the right strut.

/facepalm

Its only an issue if you only need the right one...... If you price them as a pair they are very well priced, my guess is that one is higher to avoid having dealers use TC dampers for warranty purposes because the left one is actually the cheapest front strut.

You're right.

For both the left and right struts plus the shocks it's still a good price.
