  • Nice air shock by a reputable company
Style: 49218
I purchased these to put on my Chevy Silverado 3500 to help level my load when pulling my camper. Do these installed very easy and did the job very well. The shock itself is of good quality however if there was anyone fault with this, it would be the plastic Key filler connection where I would have preferred to see a brass filler valve T and brass connector instead of plastic. So far no leaks and the ride quality is good. They were a perfect fit and a good value solution for leveling my truck when hauling my camper. ... show more

  • Minimal lift.
Style: 49231
Did not lift suspension. Firmer ride with less sway in curve. Seems to be a more stable ride in windy conditions and in curves and turns.

  • Love 'em!
Style: 49228
Installed these on a 2005 LeSabre and they fit perfectly and ride well. The OEM Delco part number that GM gives crosses to these shocks - in fact they're the same as the AC-Delcos selling on Amazon for 25 bucks more a pair. The original plastic air lines on the Buick were the snap-on type with a retainer clip and these Gabriels are threaded but Gabriel supplies a fitting kit that makes it a snap (er, I mean, a twist) to install. There was ample length on my factory airlines to attach to these shocks even with snipping off the 90-degree connector that was OEM. NOTE - do not use a flush or diagonal cutters on the plastic airline. The inside diameter is so small (well under a millimeter) you'll crush it. Use an exacto knife and slice it cleanly. There is an included large spring you're supposed to install in the dryer - however I omitted it and figured I'd see how the car performs first. The compressor comes on for a self-check as it's supposed to and then everything levels out. I see no reason to change the spring. Your mileage may vary of course. As for ride comfort, I see little difference between these new ones and the originals. They're a bit stiffer, ever so slightly, but hey they're new. That's to be expected. I saw reviews of the MA822's and it seemed more people said they were stiffer than not and I wanted to keep that large car ride intact as much as possible. No complaints here. Note that I don't have the stiff suspension option (the F41) so maybe for the firm-ride options the Monroes may not be as stiff since the springs are tighter to begin with. With the FE1 soft-ride these are the way to go. Overall these shocks are super and for a saving of nearly 480 over dealer price (535 to install) you cannot beat this set. ... show more

  • Don't Waste Your Money
Style: 49235
I put these on my 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 to level the rear of my truck when I would use an auto hauler. When I bought these the window that says these will or will not fit your vehicle indicated they would. Why would I buy something that did not or would not fit? Now the window says they won't! The shocks fit my truck just fine and were easy to install. Installation took place at approximately 15,000 miles and they seemed to work really well over the last few of years. I only used the auto hauler approximately 5 times in the time the shocks were on the truck. The rest of the time the truck was used just as transportation with nothing in the bed. About a month ago, at about 45,000 miles I noticed a knocking noise...is that a good description?....coming from the rear of the truck when I would go over a bump. I have a 4 post lift in my garage and today I put the truck on the lift to check things out. I found that all of the bushings had become loose and the rubber had migrated out of position so that the ends of the shocks were no longer centered in the mounting brackets on the truck, and the edges of the ends were rubbing on the brackets! Plus the "Bell" on the top of one of the shocks had broken loose from the shaft and was free floating. I've used Gabriel shocks over the years and they used to be really good quality. Now they're just another piece of junk made in Mexico...or to be politically correct..Hecho en Mexico. So I would recommend to not waste your money on these. UPDATE: I ordered the ACDelco air shocks for the rear of my truck to replace the above shocks. When I received the Delco shocks and opened the box guess what....they are the identical shock as the the Gabriel that "won't fit my vehicle". The number stamped on the shock absorber is the same on both brands! And both are made in Mexico... I noticed on the Delco shocks that one of the bushings was already misshapen and was positioned wrong in the shock end. So I opted to return the ACDelco shocks before even installing them. Why replace junk with junk? ... show more
