I have been buying Gabriel shock absorbers for many years. My 2001 4 cylinder has ultra white Gabriel front shocks. Chevy S10 from 09/03/2010 until today no problems. They outlived the OEMs that came with the trucks. I have used the Monroe on other machines but the ride was very rough. Gabrieli like in stock. I bought these rear shock absorbers from another site. It took 40 minutes to swap them out. I used car ramps, you can also use a jack with jack stands. It is very easy, no impact wrench is needed. Check out some Chevy S10 YouTube videos, there are a lot of them and you will save at least $150-$350. Much luck
