Monro-Matic Plus Shock Absorber Product Line Details

The Monro-Matic Plus Shock Absorber line focuses on providing consistent ride quality and improved vehicle control by using advanced valving technology. This product line is designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, making it suitable for heavy-duty trucks and SUVs like the Chevrolet Avalanche 2500 and GMC Yukon XL 2500. Part number 32350 is a reliable choice within this line for restoring suspension performance.

Technical Description and Features

This suspension shock absorber features a compressed length of 10.25 inches and an extended length of 15.125 inches, allowing for effective travel and damping. The inclusion of a metal dust shield helps prevent contamination and extends the service life of the shock. The extended bumper stop enhances shock absorption during heavy loads or rough terrain, while the absence of a compressed bumper stop and extended hydraulic lockout indicates a design focused on smooth, consistent damping rather than harsh lockout conditions.

Applications and Problem Solving

• Restores ride control and stability for Chevrolet Silverado 1500 HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD Classic
• Reduces excessive bouncing and body roll in heavy-duty trucks
• Improves handling on rough or uneven road surfaces
• Prevents premature wear of suspension components by absorbing shocks effectively
• Maintains proper vehicle height and suspension travel for loaded or towing conditions

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Monroe Monro-Matic Plus Shock Absorber 32350, ensure the upper stem mount and lower loop bushing are properly aligned with the vehicle’s mounting points.
