Review on Gabriel 81916 Heavy Duty Shock by Antonio Cummings

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's garbage. Don't waste money and time.

There is nothing pleasant about these things. My truck started moving so abruptly it was nauseating. I took it to the shop to have the ball joints replaced and find out why it drives so poorly. They didn't think it was the shocks because they had about 16,000 miles on them, but they didn't rule them out. They recommend the Monroe oespectrum on the front for $375. I bought the kit here for $85 and the difference in ride is just amazing. to their normal length. They're just junk. I'm ordering Monroe load adjusting rear shocks to replace the coil over the Gabriel shocks which I bought at the same time because I'm done with the Gabriel shocks.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
