Review on Gabriel 49131 Hijackers Air Shocks by Ricardo Thotti

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Check if they fit!

Here's the thing. When I ordered them Revain said they would fit my car. (1998 Oldsmobile Aurora) Well, we found out pretty quickly that's actually not the case. Okay, they would have if Gabriel had put the right hardware in (a slotted pin that goes through the bottom that matches the top). I had already painted them red and removed the other shock absorbers so we took a flashlight and cut out the pin, burned through the rubber and reused it from the old shock absorbers, put them in and they snapped right in. They feel stiffer on the way home, but the old shocks are worn out. My only real complaint so far I think is that they are actually louder than the old ones. When I log back in and look at them, Revane says they don't fit in my car. Thanks Revin
