Designed to restore a vehicle’s original factory drivability and performance, Monroe® OESpectrum® light truck shock absorbers provide an exceptional level of handling precision and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.

Product Features:

• EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING — Full displaced valving, tuned specifically to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes while the larger bore provides more efficient damping control to provide consistency and a smooth ride
• IMPROVES STABILITY — ASD (Acceleration Sensitive Damping) valving technology and fluon-banded piston deliver greater control and handling while improving ride comfort
• IMPROVES PERFORMANCE — Nitrogen gas-charge maintains tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration and shock fade
• CONSISTENT RIDE — OE all-weather fluid contains special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown
• BUILT TO LAST — Self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces excessive friction against the piston rod to help reduce premature wear
• Special Seal: ‘Self-lubricating’ fluid seal designed to retain gas without excessive wear or friction.
• 1-3/8 inch (34.9 mm) bore (On most applications)
• 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) diameter piston rod (On most applications)

Ideal for vehicles with a higher center of gravity, Monroe® Reflex® light truck shock absorbers feature ASD valving technology that automatically adjusts the unit to absorb the impact, helping to reduce vehicle roll and dive.

Product Features:

• IMPROVES STABILITY — ASD (Acceleration Sensitive Damping) valving technology adjusts to impacts, reducing roll and dive for vehicles with a higher center of gravity
• EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING — Full displaced valving, tuned specifically to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes while the larger bore provides more efficient damping control to provide consistency and a smooth ride
• CONSISTENT RIDE — OE all-weather fluid contains special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown while larger reserve tube holds more fluid to run cooler
• CONTROL AND DURABILITY — Fluon-banded piston provides consistent sealing between piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability
• IMPROVES PERFORMANCE — Nitrogen gas charge maintains tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration
• 2-1/4 inch or 2 inch Diameter Reserve Tube: Allows more fluid carrying capacity for a cooler running unit.
• 1-3/8 inch Bore: Lower operating pressure than standard 1 inch bore units
• 5/8 inch Piston Rod: Heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod for long service life. On non-dust shield units only
• Special Seal: ‘Self-lubricating’ fluid seal designed to retain gas without excessive wear or friction.
