Title: Great replacement for less than half the dealer price
Product review: I bought these shocks rather than pay over five hundred each from the dealer. They appear to be made by the same OEM as the shocks that came on the car and those lasted eleven years. There was even a spot where a label had been removed and replaced with the Monroe label.They installed just fine and work great. An installation trick involves balancing the load-leveling force in the shock which pushes against the leaf spring: put the car on jack stands and then use a floor jack under the end of the axle to get the lower bolt hole and bushing aligned. One nit is that the bushings are not as long as the originals; however, the shocks were provided with spacers to make up the difference and the installation went smoothly using the original bolts.I will update this review if I have any problems with the shocks.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
