Garbage. Throw this model in the trash.

One is fully functional. The second was completely compressed in the box. After I figured it out, there was almost no pressure.

Pros
  • Spare parts
Cons
  • Suitable for

Doesn't matter! Easy installation From white grout to smooth sailing

What a difference! I recently installed a couple of other shocks and it didn't change the bad bounce on my 2000 Jimmy so I was hesitant to replace them again but I did and they have the bad bounce up and down and side to side fixed others. Getting new punches will both push them down and they should have the same force to compress my old ones.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Reliability

They worked fine on my 1997 Chevrolet S10 Blazer 4WD

This is a great and affordable solution to the rough ride I've had with my Blazer. I was originally looking for Monroes but they were out of stock at the time and with the unseasonably warm weather I didn't have time to wait. My dad gave him a really ugly face because he's very stuck and piecemeal in his own way and just doesn't like new things. My husband found them easy to install (a nightmare to remove the originals after 20 years.) And it didn't become one of our nightmares at home all…

Pros
  • . Shocks, Struts & Suspension
Cons
  • Don't really like it, it's ok
