Market analysis
Why does the Ram 1500 strut cost more?
A used Ram 1500 strut carries a median asking price of $205, which is 105% higher than the Honda HR-V at $100. Supply also plays a role: Ram 1500 has 3,268 priced listings versus 584 for Honda HR-V, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Grade A (excellent condition) parts make up 74% of Honda HR-V listings compared to 59% for the Ram 1500, so buyers looking for top-condition units will find more options on the Honda HR-V side.
The Ram 1500 average ($286) runs 40% above its median ($205), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 9 model years for the Ram 1500 (2015–2025) but only 6 for the Honda HR-V (2017–2024), so the Ram 1500 data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Ram 1500 strut is interchangeable across 15 model years versus just 11 for the Honda HR-V — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Honda HR-V is 54% cheaper ($104 vs $226) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used strut
- Check the shaft for pitting or rust — a pitted shaft will chew through the new seal and start leaking immediately.
- Look for oil weeping around the seal area. A light film is normal on older units; dripping means it's spent.
- Confirm whether the strut mount and spring are included, or if you'll need to transfer yours over.
- Match the part to your vehicle's suspension type (standard, sport, electronic/adaptive) — they're not interchangeable.
