I have kyb's on an Avalon and during the winter one of the shocks freezes up..quality isn't up to oem standards and they don't last as long either

It really depends I suppose, KYB does a lot of Toyota/Lexus OE shocks in Japan, but their aftermarket aren't always up to the same level of quality as the factory ones.

Still, I've never heard of one freezing up in the winter, that's unusual, possibly a bent rod?

If you want to upgrade to a much better shock, look no further than Koni.
