Product Details

The Monroe OESpectrum line is engineered for drivers who want original-equipment ride characteristics with more precise damping control. On the Nissan Frontier and Nissan Xterra front suspension, part number 37245 uses a stem upper mount and loop-style lower mount to match the listed OE-style application. This shock absorber is specified without a dust shield, compressed bumper stop, extended bumper stop, or extended hydraulic lockout, keeping the design focused on the core damping assembly.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 61662 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Excessive front-end bounce after bumps or dips
  • Loose or unsettled steering feel on rough pavement
  • Noise and vibration from worn front shock absorbers
  • Reduced control during everyday driving on stock suspension components
  • Factory ride quality loss on Nissan Frontier and Nissan Xterra front applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the upper stem mount and lower loop bushing and sleeve mount before installation. Confirm compressed length, extended length, and travel length against the vehicle’s front suspension geometry, especially on 2001-2004 Nissan Frontier models with the Desert Runner Package and 2003-2004 Frontier or 2002-2004 Xterra vehicles with stock components. Inspect related suspension bushings and mounting points for wear before replacing the shock absorber.

Quality Assurance

Monroe positions the OESpectrum Light Truck Shock Absorber line as an OE-style replacement focused on handling precision, control, and reduced harshness. Part number 37245 is built to match the listed front applications for Nissan Frontier and Nissan Xterra service.
