Review on πŸš— Monroe 5752 OESpectrum Passenger Car Shock Absorber: Enhanced Performance and Comfort for Your Vehicle by Mark Powell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A decent shock designed for the 01 Insight due to the cost savings over the OEM, well worth it.

Purchased to understand Gen 1 and installed following instructions on forum www.insightcentral.com. This is a pretty simple layout. This shock absorber is designed for something like an old VW bus but with modifications to fit a newer car at a fraction of the cost of HOnda parts. Everything seems fine. Better than the old ones that no longer existed. I wish it was a little stiffer but for the price I think it's ok for regular use. Definitely not a performance product, but a worthy replacement for stock dampers.

Pros
  • All Weather Fluid: Contains special modifiers to reduce friction and ensure smooth stem response.
Cons
  • Compatibility
