This thread talks about it:

Never heard of the company sturtwise. I am sure they are fantastic, and being in Canada is a bonus for me. On the other hand, I went through LS Technologies many years ago for stronger replacements for my 2007 xterra as they failed in the winter. The ones I received were factory fit, and were about 20% stronger. Worked like a million bucks, so I am planning on dealing with them again. I spoke to them today and wanted to know the factory lift strength, in order to not go too powerful on replacements. And a bonus is LS is only 250kms (150 miles from me).
