I think they will work: Shock

They fit my 2011 Big Country . I had regular shocks there, two were busted and the other two were dead. I was expecting to feel a significant difference in those kicks. Unfortunately I don't notice any difference. I don't think it's as shocking as the trailer. He always drew well and I didn't care about those shots. Your results may vary. Not disappointed but I just couldn't give it 5 stars.

Pros
  • 2" or 2-3/8" replacement pipe (50.8mm or 60.3mm) (if required)
Cons
  • Available in white only

Excellent shock and vibration dampening product

35ft 5 Wheel Motorhome . I've read reviews that these shocks are too long to fit in the shock mounts. it was true They only needed about 1/4 inch to fit in the mount. It wasn't a big problem. I used an 8 ton jack located next to the shock on the frame and raised the frame about 1 inch and the shock bottomed out easily. The shock still has plenty of room to move and the Monroe 555025 is much better than the stock shock. I definitely recommend this product.

Pros
  • Nitrogen Gas: Improves ride and handling, helps keep the tire in contact with the road by reducing ventilation - in most cases
Cons
  • Only available in black

First check the size of the existing shock absorber

I was looking to replace our old hydraulic shock absorbers on the fifth wheel with new gas shock absorbers. I should note that the comparison charts show that the replacement gas shock for our existing hydraulic shocks is part number 555001. As other reviewers have noted, these 555025 shocks are rated for trailers over 10,000 lbs GVW. Our fifth wheel weighs just over 10,300 pounds so based on other reviews I ordered this in place of 555001. However, once they arrived, it quickly became apparent

Pros
  • Metal dust cover material
Cons
  • No instructions
