TRQ Front Strut & Coil Spring Assembly Set Compatible with 13-16 Dodge

In this review of the TRQ Front Strut & Coil Spring Assembly Set, the bottom line is straightforward: this two-piece, vehicle specific kit is for Dodge Dart owners who need a direct-fit OE replacement that restores ride comfort without heavy modification. The set arrived complete with both driver and passenger front strut assemblies and preloaded springs, and it saved time compared with separate spring and shock installation. For anyone wanting a budget-conscious, ready-to-install solution that aims to reduce body sway and vibration, this TRQ kit is worth considering.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed to match 2013-16 Dodge Dart front driver and passenger locations so no custom fitting is required.
• OE Replacement: Built as an OE replacement suspension strut and coil spring kit to restore original ride comfort and handling balance.
• Loaded Struts: Pre-assembled, pre-loaded bearing plate and spring isolator save time and reduce installation complexity.
• Matched Pair: The two-piece matched pair improves comfort and extends service life by replacing both sides at once.
• Vehicle Specific Fit: Listing includes fitment checks and references so buyers can confirm compatibility before purchase.
• Aftermarket Reference: Cross-referenced to common replacement numbers to help with part matching and verification.

Who It's For

The TRQ strut and spring assembly set is best for 2013-2016 Dodge Dart owners who want a straightforward, ready-to-install pair of front assemblies. It appeals to DIY mechanics and independent shops that prefer a fully loaded unit to avoid compressing springs or rebuilding struts during installation.

It is less appropriate for owners who need performance-tuned suspension or who require OEM-branded parts for warranty reasons. Also, if long term longevity under heavy use is your primary concern, consider discussing expected service life with your installer, since customer reports on longevity are mixed.

Pros & Cons
