Product Details

The Monroe Max-Air Air Shock Absorber line is focused on rear suspension control for vehicles that regularly carry cargo, tow trailers, or see added bed weight. MA769 uses an adjustable air chamber so the shock can be inflated or deflated to help keep the vehicle level under changing loads. This makes it a practical choice for Ford Ranger and Mazda B-series truck owners who need rear ride-height support without changing the vehicle’s basic suspension layout. This part cross-references Continental 49207 for the same application.

Compatible With 1983-2011 Ford Ranger, rear; 1984-1990 Ford Bronco II, rear; 1994-2007 Mazda B3000, rear; 1994-2004 Mazda B4000, rear; 1994-1997 Mazda B2300, rear; 1998-2001 Mazda B2500, rear; and 2001-2009 Mazda B2300, rear. Search terms such as rear air shock absorber for Ford Ranger towing and hauling or Mazda B3000 rear load-leveling shock absorber align with this application.

Common Problems It Helps Address

• Rear sag when carrying tools, cargo, or trailer tongue weight
• Loss of ride height after adding load to the bed or rear of the vehicle
• Reduced suspension support during towing and hauling
• Need for adjustable rear shock pressure to match changing payloads
• Replacement of worn rear air shocks on Ford Ranger and Mazda B-series trucks

Installation Notes and Tips

Replacement requires a separate left and right fill system with an AK18 or AK64 Air Line Kit. Verify upper and lower mounting styles, compressed length, and extended length before installation to confirm proper suspension travel and fitment. Follow the vehicle owner’s manual for load limits and air pressure guidance, and do not exceed the suspension, tire, or transmission capacity of the vehicle.
