Rear Shocks for 92 EZ Go Marathon

Brownwood · 05-13-2009, 07:59 AM

I buggered up my rear shocks installing my lift kit last night and ther not in real good shape anyway. I would like to get seomthing at the local Auto Zone to get me back rolling. Anyone know a Monroe or other part # for rear shocks that will fit my 92 Marathon. They have the stud on the top and the round bushing on the bottom.

You will need to know the size of the current shocks you have now. Since you already have them off, check the dimensions and then go to the Mounting Length and Specifications sheet for Munroe to match up what you have.
The link to that spec sheet is here:

STUPIDITY, I grabbed the wrong nut off the garage floor and stripped the threads on the stud end. Technically one shock is ok, but I figured i would replace both.

to BGW .......

If you didn't go that far onto the stud with the nut, think about just cutting off the offending part (buggered up threads) then re-cut or clean-up the remaining threads and go again

....... that is unless you just want

to buy another set of shocks

No but its close on the back. I had to play around with the orientattion of the shock spacer piece to get dceent clearance.
