Description of πŸš— Enhance Your Ride with Monroe Shocks & Struts Max-Air MA817 Air Shock Absorber

MAINTAIN RIDE HEIGHT UNDER LOAD -- Air chamber can be inflated or deflated up to 150 PSI to maintain level height with additional weight up to 1,200 lbs. (capacity is limited by suspension, tires and transmission; see owner's manual). EASY TO ADJUST -- Special air fitting resists air leakage and ties into factory system (where applicable) or manually inflates with an air compressor; pair with Monroe air shock accessory and shock air hose AK kits (varies by application). EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING -- Full-displaced valving on compression and extension cycles for a smooth ride. BUILT TO LAST -- Hardened and precision ground piston rod for consistent performance, sintered iron piston for enhanced durability and longer service life and lubricated air sleeve reduces friction for smooth operation. CONSISTENT RIDE -- OE all-weather fluid contains special modifiers to handle extreme temperatures and help reduce friction and ensure smooth rod reaction.

Happy Wife Spare Parts

Wife always complained about the difficult ride when we hitched a small trailer to our conversion van. I looked at the airbags but felt like it was too much. Put Monroe air shocks in it and it made a very noticeable difference. Now I can adjust the ride height and turn off the lousy stock shocks. EZ installation.

Pros
  • Pleasant to Use
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Monroe air springs in parts

Ordered a new set of Monroe air springs for my van. On receipt it was found that some parts were missing. Instead of sending them back I chose to buy the parts locally. When I contacted Revain.com they gave me a discount on the missing parts. All in all it was a good experience.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Revainrating 4 out of 5

very satisfied so far: shock absorber

worked very well, leveled my old dump truck with 2 separate air hoses just wondering how long it holds air? (why 4 stars). I don't expect this to last forever, the air lines are easy to replace if damaged and if so I would put a pipe/duct in, but so far so good, very satisfied. fast delivery, good packaging

Pros
  • wide range
Cons
  • zero

At first they liked it, then they let me down

First - I'm an experienced mechanic. I've used them for 14 months - loved them - but just realized the driver's side shock was leaking and not holding pressure anymore. This car rarely drives, so maybe 4,000 miles. This is very disappointing and I assume a manufacturer error. Does anyone else have this problem?

Pros
  • They look good
Cons
  • Some flaws

I can hold my breath longer than hold this air.

Very disappointed with these dampers. I installed them on a van for a trip and the driver's side shock failed less than a day before our trip. Two separate mechanics looked at them and confirmed the leak. The only reason I have more than one star is that without air adjustment they still do the job of a main shock absorber.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • High price
