Product Details

Monroe Max-Air shock absorbers are part of the Max-Air Air Shock Absorber line, created for vehicles that need adjustable rear suspension support without changing the basic shock absorber layout. The MA773 is a rear air shock for Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Bronco, Ford F-150, and Ford F-100 applications listed below. This part cross-references Continental 49197 for the same application.

Fits 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee, rear for towing and hauling; without Up Country Suspension; use AK18 Air Line Kit to replace single air shock fill system if necessary; use AK64 Air Line Kit to add separate left and right air shock fill system if desired. Fits 1980-1996 Ford Bronco, rear for towing and hauling. Fits 1980-1984 Ford F-150, rear for towing and hauling. Fits 1980-1983 Ford F-100, rear for towing and hauling. Monroe MA773 is a direct-fit rear air shock absorber for these listed applications.

What It Helps Address

  • Rear sag when carrying cargo or towing
  • Loss of ride height after adding weight to the vehicle
  • Excessive rear-end drop under load
  • Need for adjustable air pressure to fine-tune rear support
  • Worn rear shock performance on load-bearing vehicles

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle suspension configuration before ordering. For 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee applications, the listing excludes Up Country Suspension. Some vehicles require a separate left and right air shock fill system; AK18 or AK64 air line kits are referenced for those setups. Confirm mounting style, compressed length, and extended length against the original shock before installation.

Quality Assurance

Built as a Monroe suspension component with rubber dust shielding and integrated bumper stops for added protection in service. Air pressure adjustment up to 150 PSI provides a practical way to tune rear support within the limits of the vehicle suspension, tires, and transmission.
