1998 Mercury Mountaineer Front Shock and Struts

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
• CONTROL AND DURABILITY – PTFE-banded piston provides consistent sealing between piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability
• REDUCED NOISE, VIBRATION AND HARSHNESS – Twin Technology Active Control System delivers exceptional control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness
• 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
• BUY WITH CONFIDENCE – Comes with Monroe’s Limited Warranty and exclusive Feel the Difference
• 5/8-inch (15.9 mm) diameter piston rod (On most applications)

Featuring a unique, exclusive valving system and advanced compression functionality, Rancho RS5000X shocks deliver improved overall on-road and off-road handling and performance.

Product Features:

• IMPROVED HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE – Cross Tuned technology featuring exclusive rebound valving system and advanced compression phase improves overall handling and performance on and off road
• MINIMIZES ROUGH RIDE – Exclusive Progressive Engagement Valving is custom-tuned for each vehicle to help reduce initial impacts at low speeds and minimizes a rough ride
• STRONG AND DURABLE – Features a 16mm nitro-carburized piston rod to resist scuffs & corrosion, double-welded loops at stress areas, 35mm sintered iron piston for enhanced structural integrity and polyvinyl protective boot
• HANDLES EXTREME TEMPERATURE CHANGES – Large twin-tube body filled with all-weather fluid allows for cooler operation, increased vehicle control and ability to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248 degree F
• SMOOTH PERFORMANCE – Polyurethane rebound bumper and rubber bushings help absorb ride harshness while the fluon-banded piston enhances responsiveness to changing road conditions for an overall smoother ride
• REDUCES FADE – Nitrogen gas pressurized to 150 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixture to reduce damping performance fade and foaming
• MAINTAINS VEHICLE CONTROL – Compression Control Valve is custom-tuned for each vehicle to regulate fluid transfer to absorb impacts without disc flutter and help maintain shock motion control
• BUILT TO LAST – Low-friction, self-lubricating seal retains gas and oil for quicker rebound and smoother compression while the application-specific piston delivers heightened control of shock motion due to the expanded piston area
• BUY WITH CONFIDENCE – Comes with Rancho’s Limited Warranty

Designed for midsize and full-size trucks and vans, Monroe Gas-Magnum shock absorbers provide firm control without a harsh ride. With up to twice the fluid capacity of standard 1-in. bore shocks, they work more efficiently with less effort.

Product Features:

• DESIGNED FOR TRUCKS AND VANS – Engineered for hardworking full-size trucks and vans and features full-displaced valving on compression cycles to deliver controlled ride and handling
• BUILT TO LAST – Heavy-duty nitrocarburized rod (non-dust shield units only) and sintered iron piston enhance durability for longer service life while self-lubricating fluid seal reduces friction against piston rod to reduce wear
• CONSISTENT RIDE – OE all-weather fluid contains special modifiers to handle extreme temperatures and help reduce friction and ensure smooth rod reaction
• IMPROVES PERFORMANCE – Nitrogen gas-charge maintains tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration and shock fade
• LONGER SERVICE LIFE – Larger bore and bigger 2-in. reserve tube work together to hold more oil for greater capacity to allow the shock to work efficiently for controlled ride and longer service life
• BUY WITH CONFIDENCE – Comes with Monroe’s Limited Warranty and exclusive Feel the Difference
• Sintered Iron Piston: Stronger than traditional metals, enhances durability for longer service life.
• Special Seal: ‘Self-lubricating’ fluid seal designed to retain gas without excessive wear or friction.
