Review on 911278 Shock Absorber by Monroe Shocks & Struts with Reflex Technology by Daniel Truett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great shock absorber and great AMAZON service!

This is a great shock replacement - I installed the kit on my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited with 89,000 miles. Made a huge difference in the quality of the road ride, and now it particularly controls those ubiquitous speed bumps - even better than when it was new I think. I don't ride much off-road so I can't give an opinion. Very easy to fit - two (big) screws per side - didn't even have to jack up the car. An impact wrench helps as the threads on the bolts can rust a bit in 8 years. Recently the A-pillars (same brand) were replaced, now they are all new. I found good reviews for this product on all the websites I checked before purchasing and I have to agree that this is a very good product. Would give 5 stars if they were black or darker; That's my only hesitation though, as they are distinct from the rest of the underbody, although not very visible from the back or side of the car. At the moment I give them a solid rating of 4.7. I could probably get a slightly better price from another vendor, but they're still smaller here than most other places, and I bought several other items at once, so I bought them here for convenience. BTW the AMAZON packaging was great - each one was well protected in a triangular cardboard tube.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Some small things
