Comments about Monroe Gas-Matic Strut:

Replaced other brand adjustamatics that had internal rattle. These Monroes are easier to install as they have internal hex on shaft end to hold shaft while tightening the nut. i clamped an allen wrench in the vise to hold the shaft while i tightened the nut. Only mild complaint is the boot shown in the listing was not supplied.
