Gabriel Ultra ReadyMount Front Right Complete Strut Assembly - Direct

Our review of the Gabriel Ultra ReadyMount front right complete strut assembly focuses on drivers of mid-2000s Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum with the 3.5L 6Cyl RWD who want a direct replacement that saves time during installation. The bottom line: this preassembled strut cuts out spring compression and shortens installation time while delivering a ride that many owners describe as close to new. It is best for DIY mechanics and independent shops that value a fully loaded, ready-to-install unit that includes the mount, boot, bumper and spring.

Key Features

• Preassembled ReadyMount: Arrives as a complete strut assembly so installation requires no spring compression, reducing shop time and safety risk.
• Complete components included: Upper mount, strut bumper, strut boot, coil spring and spring seat come installed for a straightforward swap.
• Direct vehicle fitment: Designed for 06-10 Chrysler 300, 06-10 Dodge Charger and 05-08 Dodge Magnum with 3.5L 6Cyl RWD, ensuring proper fit and alignment.
• Measured dimensions: Stroke 5.59 in, extended length 25 in, collapsed length 19.41 in for predictable ride height and travel.
• OE replacement design: Built as a factory-style Ultra strut for consistent damping and compatibility with original mounting points.
• Time and labor saver: Preassembled construction helps DIY installers avoid special tools and reduces overall installation complexity.

Who It's For

This Gabriel ReadyMount is ideal for hands-on owners and independent mechanics working on the listed Chrysler and Dodge models who want a near plug-and-play replacement that restores ride comfort without a spring compressor. It especially suits those replacing a worn strut looking for improved ride quality and a simple install.

It is less appropriate for buyers seeking high-performance, adjustable suspension components or those who need parts for vehicles outside the specified 3.5L RWD fitment. Also, if long-term durability beyond typical service intervals is your sole priority, consider researching customer reports on lifespan before committing.
