ALWAYS COMPLETE, ALWAYS IN PAIRS

For a complete repair, always replace shocks in pairs – 2 in the front and/or 2 in the back. It’s important that these precisely matched parts work together to provide the ride you need and deserve. Also, don’t forget to install a new Monroe Mounting Kit and/or Monroe Protection Kit with each new shock to help prevent premature wear.
