Review on Gabriel 77950 Monotube Absorber with Enhanced CONTROL for Improved Performance by Jim Booth

This is my review the durability. I installed them in 2012 and put about 93,000 miles on them - a one ton truck and none of them were light. They are now on life support and have been replaced by Bilstein 5100's. To start with the Gabriel shocks were good not outstanding and I think they were a good inexpensive upgrade to worn stock shocks. Looking back I think they were 'done' at least a year ago, especially the front ones, but they far exceeded the expected 50,000 miles. Only one of the four dampers showed a slight leakage, mostly the internal parts gave everything they could. Good damper for a good price but recently ridden a Bilstein.
