Work great! for spare parts

Very good product, stiffened our 1 ton Ford Cargo E350 very well. Makes the ride great and not difficult to install! Highly recommended and good prices

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • -

Added an extra elevator that we needed. Excellent price.

It's hard to find one that matches our 1988 van. These fit and work great. We wire wrapped the air ducts for added protection. It took a few hours to remove the old shock absorbers and install these. Works perfectly.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • I don't like anything about it, everything is fine

Big hits when you can stop a leak

They were easy to install and worked well. They lifted the back of my van almost an inch. They also seemed to smooth out the ride. Unfortunately, I couldn't get her to lose a few psi every day.

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • Crumpled

Improved spare parts design

Haven't bought them for several years. This new design protects the airbox, so it should be more resistant to punctures from objects hitting it. Air fittings are as cheap as possible. Take your time and make sure you install them correctly or they will leak.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • So-so
