Shock absorber review part 2

The next components to find a place on our list are these Monroe shocks. Each half inch piston rod has been hardened and precision ground, for consistent performance and an impressive service life. Inside, the shocks feature all-weather fluid, carefully blended to reduce friction for consistently smooth rod reaction. Both the compression and extension cycles on each unit have been improved through valving range alterations, for a smoother, more comfortable ride.

The shocks make a perfect fit for Buicks and Cadillacs. If you regularly use your vehicle for towing or carrying heavy loads, these are the perfect rear shock absorbers for you. They’ve been carefully engineered to maintain your vehicle’s ride height, when loaded with up to 1,100 pounds of extra weight. For normal driving, the shocks can be adjusted to 150 PSI, so they’re great for day to day use, too. Thanks to a monotube design, these components are very hard wearing, even on challenging terrain. Drivers say that the shocks offer a fantastic ride and excellent value for money.

The next shock absorber to earn a spot on our list is by ACDelco. The first front shock absorbers to make our list, these light duty components help to adsorb and dampen all the bumps and vibrations from the road, without weighing down your vehicle. If you drive a GM vehicle, these could be the perfect option for you – they’re specifically designed for use with GM manufactured cars and trucks. In fact, along with shocks and struts, ACDelco make a whole range of high quality GM-compatible components.

Each versatile shock has been carefully engineered to perform well with cars, light duty trucks, and even SUVs. Each shock comes with a 24 month warranty – regardless of how many miles you travel – so you can rest assured they’re built to last. Drivers say that these durable shocks helped their suspension system feel brand new again, significantly improving ride quality and handling for an overall safer, more comfortable driving experience.

These Monroe air shocks have earned the manufacturer a second spot on our list. Each high quality shock features a carefully blended all-weather fluid, which helps to reduce friction in the system, for smooth rod reaction. The components also utilise full displaced valving to deliver a consistent ride, that adapts to even the most extreme road conditions.

Meanwhile, fluon banded pistons offer consistent sealing between the piston itself and the pressure tube, for improved durability and increased handling control. If you often expose your vehicle to a wide range of surfaces and conditions, these shocks could be the perfect match for your lifestyle. They’re also a great option for towing and heavy truck bed loads – thanks to heavy gauge calibrated springs, they can maintain ride height even when the vehicle is loaded with up to 1,100 pounds of cargo. Drivers say these shocks are excellent value for money, and a simple but effective upgrade for almost any truck or SUV.

Bilstein has also earned a second spot on our list, thanks to these monotube shocks. These rear shock absorbers are specifically engineered to improve the performance of your lifted truck, Jeep, or SUV. Featuring a monotube design, the deliver sturdy durability through gas pressure technology. Each component is finished with multi-layer zinc, for industry leading corrosion resistance.

For your peace of mind, the shocks also include a lifetime warranty – they truly are built to last. In use, the shock’s self-adjusting deflective disc valving ensures a consistent ride whatever terrain you tackle. Finally, with a little mechanical knowhow, these shocks are surprisingly easy to install. They can be directly bolted on, without the need for modification.  Drivers report that these shocks offer a smooth ride and effective handling. They’re attractive, too – fitted with black boots as standard.
