Shock no-no
Well I really don't want to admit I did this but if it saves someone else from doing the same thing then it'll be worth it.
I bought four Monroe shocks for my '92. Put them on with no trouble and took her out for a test spin. It IMO made a noticeable difference in the ride. Brought her back to the garage and something was leaking out the front. Well I had punched a hole in one of the shocks with the block lift. You can see in the photo's where the corner came back into the shock and put a hole in it. Whoops. So I got out the trusty angle grinder and knocked off the corners as seen in the other picture with the hope the axle won't spring back into them. Thankfully I only did it to one shock and just dented the other. Hope that this will help someone in the future from doing the same thing. |

Re: Shock no-no
Which Monroe shock did you use?
I'm looking at replacing the rear shocks on mine with something other than factory. |

31000 for the rear and 31125 for the front.
These are for a four inch lift kit. |
