🔧 Enhanced Performance: Monroe Shocks & Struts OESpectrum 39052 Shock Absorber Review

Terrible. They pounded very loudly as the insides can somehow move back and forth inside (which shouldn't be). Both units I've bought have done this - hopefully it was a bad batch but I went back and chose a different brand which is quiet and works as expected.

The old air shocks in my 2005 Rendezvous were a problem. They leaked air and eventually burned out the pump motor. They were also completely unnecessary on a vehicle like the Rendezvous. Those were the answers. They fit perfectly and cost a fraction of the cost of replacing stock air shocks, not to mention the burned out engine.

They ride well and are very similar to the original shock absorbers. The shock absorbers make the car drive much better than the old worn ones. I have used sensa-trac on several of my vehicles and have always been happy with it. I have not had to replace defective or bad Monroe shock absorbers on my vehicles. The dampers for my rendezvous come on and off very easily. Great little project that can be done in just an hour.

These shocks are ideal in place of auto air adjustable shocks. They're paired with Moog 81039 springs, although they're a lot stronger than the stock springs, with air-adjusted suspension, and I was able to eliminate that crappy auto-leveling air shock. The ride is much stiffer but more connected to the road.
