Monroe Max-Air MA828 Air Shock Absorber

The Monroe Max-Air Air Shock Absorber MA828 is built for rear suspension support on select Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 applications. It lets you adjust air pressure up to 150 PSI to help maintain ride height when the vehicle is carrying added weight, making it a practical choice for towing and hauling.

Monroe’s Max-Air Air Shock Absorber line focuses on load-leveling control for trucks and light-duty work vehicles. The MA828 uses a loop bushing and sleeve mount at both ends, includes a rubber dust shield, and provides 10.125 inches of travel for rear suspension service.

It is also listed for 2002 Chevrolet C1500 rear applications. This part cross-references Continental 49235 for the same application. Use MA828 when you need adjustable rear support to help keep the vehicle level under added cargo or trailer tongue weight.

Compatible With 1999-2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 rear, 1999-2006 GMC Sierra 1500 rear, 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic rear, 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic rear, and 2002 Chevrolet C1500 rear. The MA828 part number is commonly searched by drivers looking for a rear air shock absorber for Silverado 1500 towing and hauling or Sierra 1500 load-leveling service.

What It Helps Address

  • Rear sag when carrying cargo or towing
  • Loss of ride height under added load
  • Need for adjustable suspension support on work trucks
  • Worn rear shock performance on load-bearing applications
  • Uneven stance after adding trailer weight or bed cargo

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle suspension configuration before ordering, including the note for models without electronic adjustable suspension. For some vehicles, Monroe notes that an AK18 air line kit can replace a single air shock fill system if needed, and an AK64 air line kit can add separate left and right air shock fill control if desired. Confirm upper and lower mount style, compressed length, and extended length against the original shock before installation.

Quality Assurance

Monroe Max-Air shocks are engineered for adjustable rear suspension support in hauling-focused applications. The MA828 is built with a rubber dust shield and standard loop bushing and sleeve mounts for the listed fitments.
