The Beast I Drive Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 if they are adjustable there should be 2 bolt looking adjusters below the lower spring perch on the strut. -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast I Drive Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 We bought ours at a small but very reliable and well trusted parts store called Mr. T's Mid Valley Auto, we get some sweet deals there, and everything is next day if its not in stock I think we paid 89$ per strut, but Im not sure, this was last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardtail_pride Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 We bought ours at a small but very reliable and well trusted parts store called Mr. T's Mid Valley Auto" Hey i looked up on the Monroe web site and there was only one option. Here is the link to it.(you will have to navigate a little bit though). Any chance you can check with that auto store or if you know off the top of your head if this is the right one with the adjusters? Thanks:-p http://catalog.tenneco.com/monroe/shockSelector.do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast I Drive Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 oops, the adjustable ones werent monroes, I forgot what they were, but we changed them again, we have the monroes on our GL, they sit taller than the stock ones though. I guess the adjustables we had put on were from a dealer, you might try there and see if they have any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
