Product Details

The Monroe OESpectrum Light Truck Shock Absorber 37159 is engineered to bring back original factory drivability and performance while maintaining precise control over front-end motion. Its valving and mounting design are suited for stock-component vehicles that need a direct replacement shock with a focus on ride quality, steering response, and cabin comfort. This part cross-references KYB 344298 for the same application.

Compatible With 2002-2004 Isuzu Axiom, front; 1998-2004 Isuzu Rodeo, front; 2001-2003 Isuzu Rodeo Sport, front; 1998-2002 Honda Passport, front; and 1998-2000 Isuzu Amigo, front. Monroe 37159 is a fitment-based replacement for drivers searching for a front shock absorber for a 1998-2002 Honda Passport or a front shock absorber for a 1998-2004 Isuzu Rodeo.

What It Helps Address

• Excessive front-end bounce after bumps and dips
• Loose or unsettled ride feel on worn suspension
• Noise and harshness from aging shock absorbers
• Reduced control during braking and cornering
• Uneven ride quality on stock suspension setups

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front suspension fitment by year, make, model, and mounting style before installation. This shock uses a stem upper mount and a loop bushing lower mount, so confirm the vehicle’s original hardware and sleeve dimensions match the listed specifications. Inspect related suspension components such as bushings, mounts, and bump stops during replacement to help restore consistent ride control.

Monroe OESpectrum Light Truck shocks are built as OE-style replacement components for restoring factory-like handling and comfort. The 37159 part number is listed for select Isuzu Axiom, Isuzu Rodeo, Isuzu Rodeo Sport, Honda Passport, and Isuzu Amigo front applications.
