Good to know. The "all year" listing was for the KYB, where the other was the Gabriel.

I also discovered why my Gabriel's went out about a month after having then put on, the extended length is around 20" and collapsed is around 13", where the KYB's are about 17.6" and 11.3".

I got two bad passenger side KYB struts in a row from RockAuto, so they're refunding me and not having me send the two back. Still waiting to see if they want me to send back the good driver's side strut, I won't use it without a good one for the other side.
