Product Details

Monroe Max-Air shock absorbers are part of the Max-Air Air Shock Absorber line, which focuses on rear suspension control for vehicles that regularly carry extra weight. The MA771 is a fitment-based replacement for select Ford trucks and uses an air-adjustable design to help keep the rear of the vehicle level during towing and hauling. This part cross-references Continental 49214 for the same application.

Compatible With 1980-1991 Ford F-250, rear; Fits 1992-1996 Ford F-250, rear; Fits 1985-1996 Ford F-150, rear; Fits 1996 Ford F-100 Ranger, rear. For 1992-1996 Ford F-250 applications, use the correct air line kit when replacing a single air shock fill system or when adding separate left and right fill control.

Common Uses

  • Rear sag when carrying cargo in a Ford F-150 or Ford F-250
  • Loss of ride height during towing and hauling
  • Need for adjustable rear suspension support on a Ford F-100 Ranger
  • Uneven stance caused by added load in the bed or rear of the vehicle
  • Replacement of an existing rear air shock absorber on select Ford trucks

Installation Notes

Verify mount style, compressed length, and extended length before installation. Air line routing and fill-system setup must match the vehicle’s existing configuration; some applications require a separate left and right fill system, while others may use an air line kit for replacement or conversion. Review the vehicle owner’s manual and confirm suspension, tire, and transmission limits before loading the vehicle.

Quality Assurance

Monroe manufactures the MA771 as part of its Max-Air line for rear load-leveling suspension service. The shock includes dust protection and internal bumper stops for added durability in demanding towing and hauling use.
