🚗 Enhance Your Ride with Monroe Shocks & Struts OESpectrum 5609 Shock Absorber Review

Lower shock bushing non OEM. Sloppy landing, rattled and knocked. Removed and returned by Revain. Buy an $80 Honda shock or look for something better with a solid hub.

These are great shocks. They feel great, especially when someone like me is looking for a factory ride. They made my car's suspension brand new again. Again, these shock absorbers are very comparable to OEM specs but without the high prices. I will definitely recommend her!

one of my original shock absorbers lost pressure and caused my car to shake when going over bumps or drops in the road. I received a pair of these shock absorbers as replacements. it was cheap. It looks a little softer than the original. But it works. After 2 years of use it looks like it needs to be replaced. I'm a little rough with my car.

This shock absorber will not fit my 2008 Honda Civic LX 4 door sedan perfectly even though the product description says it fits perfectly. The rubber bushing feels too small, causing the damper to rattle. Also, it was shipped without a top nut, so it's up to the seller and/or manufacturer to check the boxes before shipping!

They don't have as much travel (fully extended) as the OEM and the mine rides hard and noisy after about 2 months of wear in both applications. I am very, very disappointed.

base that matches the bottom bracket and over-tightens the cross-bolt by 3mm. I had to file both to fit between the bracket to align the screw. The tip, which screws into the barrel, isn't a 5mm hex, it's just a flat punch on the end. You'll need to clamp it with a vise to hold it while you tighten the nut. The rubber pads running from the top of the trunk are smaller than the stock ones and don't fill the whole can properly. This should not be called a genuine replacement. Some adjustments are

I bought these about a year ago with what was supposed to be a lifetime warranty. They were loud and I called the seller. The seller didn't work with me and offered to work directly with Monroe. I did this and they said they would not honor the warranty because the seller was not an authorized dealer or reseller. I mainly blame this Monroe because I don't think the seller should affect the warranty. Monroe made them in his factory, what difference does it make who sold them? I will never buy…

First off, don't be surprised (pun intended) if you get them and they don't look exactly as pictured on Revain. The box is definitely Monroe's, although it doesn't have a logo sticker as one might assume from the picture. I then rated the same shock across several major auto centers (let's call them Big P Tires and Firerock for legality) as well as the local mechanic I use and none of them could match that price. One local went so far as to tell me he might have to order them through Revain as…
