Product Details
Monroe Max-Air shock absorbers are part of the Max-Air Air Shock Absorber line, which focuses on rear suspension height control for vehicles that carry changing loads.

Installation Notes
Use the correct air line kit for the vehicle and setup; Monroe notes that replacement may require a separate left and right fill system with AK18 or AK64 Air Line Kit on certain applications. Verify suspension, tire, and transmission capacity before adding load, and confirm the shock’s compressed and extended dimensions against the vehicle’s mounting space. Fitment includes rear applications only for the listed Chevrolet G10, Chevrolet G20, GMC G1500, GMC G2500, GMC G15, and GMC G25 models.
