Review on πŸ”§ Monro-Matic Plus 32217 Shock Absorber by Monroe Shocks & Struts by Prem Reyel

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The quality control of the production leaves a lot to be desired.

Meh. If they last a year, that's enough for my old 175,000 mile car. $21 and 15 minutes of work, not bad. However, I do notice that one of the shocks had a rubber support bushing along which runs a bolt in a small bushing that is not fully inserted into the metal ring. As a result, it didn't fit into the mounting plate as it should. Luckily I have an arbor press and I was able to push it in enough to install. But someone without a press may have to return them for a replacement. Pretty bad quality control. But for the price, I guess I can't complain.

Pros
  • SMOOTH RIDE -- Velocity Proportional Valveving (VPV) technology and multigrade fluid with special additives to reduce friction and provide smooth shaft response and a smoother overall ride
Cons
  • Medium
