I'm the guy who did the strut test, after I bought struts that damaged my car from a trusted vendor. The incorrect struts came from DeLorean Motor Company in Houston. Though they apparently originate from the same factory as some other struts, they are dimensioned wrongly. More dissappointing to me than the damage to my car, which wasn't bad because I noticed the flaw right away, and only closed the door once, was DeLorean Motor Company's subsequent blame shifting. They had an opportunity to admit their mistake, and make it right, and they missed it. But I don't like to slam them too much; I might want to buy something from them someday, and the DeLorean community is kind of small, so I'm uninclined to piss anybody off too badly. I tested four struts in all, P.J. Grady's, John Hervey's, DeLorean Motor Center's, and DeLorean Motor Company's. I could be very happy with struts from DeLorean Motor Center, John Hervey, or P.J. Grady. All three were very good, and only differentiated themselve from each other by subtle differences. On my car, I have P.J. Grady struts. They work fine, as do struts from DeLorean Motor Center (Don Steger, California), or John Hervey. If you want, I can send you a copy of the report. It's a big file, though, and doesn't really say anything that I haven't in this post.
