Monroe Magnum RV 555010 Suspension Shock Absorber and Coil Spring Assembly for Ford E-350 Super Duty

Arrived as expected, made the difference in the world, improved ride quality and side sway. Perfect

The Shocks Work, Not sure if there is any gas inside. I think its all spring. This does raise the back up maybe 3 inches. It helps but still kind of loud I guess probably leaf springs are bad. As for getting them on the vehicle, what a pain. My bolts on the old shock was rusted. The only way is to cut it. The bottom of the shock has to be jacked up, still couldn't get the bolts out of the bottom of shock without cutting it. The left shock upper bolt is 3 inches off the gas tank. I would say over 2 hours per shock. Don't need to take the tire off just get the vehicle off the ground a (3t floor jack with a piece of wood on the frame in front of tire worked for me. The leaf spring will only let the tire drop so far off the ground anyway. Once bottom bolt is out The old shock was rusted and falling apart so a pipe wrench wouldn't work. Twisting the shock off a rusted bolt. Not Happening lol The Bottom Bolts are not threaded in the shock. (who knows with Ford?) Putting the new (shock) well the bottom of the shock had metal burs that may cut your hand if trying to turn the whole shock. Both nuts at turn location was same size so (2) 3/4 wrench was needed. Putting them on 30 minutes, using a jack on the bottom to line the through bolt up. Nothing easy about this. Cut until Bolt Breaks off. Once you get the shock in the mail and out of the box take the top bolt and tight and loosen about 100 times. Your first 30 times of tightening are not going to be easy. this will probably make it easier before the shock is on the vehicle. Not a horrible job, a can do one, but it isn't easy. ford e350

Fit perfect, holds well, will definitely buy again for our company truck.

I was nervous about these being too stiff for my van. I have a 2007 e350 quigley extended, and the majority of the reviews are from class c owners. I usually run with several hundred pounds in the back and a roof top tent nearly all behind the rear axle. The ride improvement was noticeable and not harsh at all. It only raised the rear around an inch. The installation was a little more difficult because of the brackets that quigley welds in to compensate for the lift blocks. After having to cut the old shocks out with a grinder, the install was a breeze. As others have said, you will need 2 jacks.

Bought these for my 94 Four Winds Class C, I was able to install both within 2 hours. You will need 2 jacks, 1 to lift the frame up a bit and 1 to help lift up the shock once you have the top nut screwed on. Nothing too hard just a bit time consuming. These shocks made a huge difference when I took it out for a test drive! No more rattling and no more swaying when driving down the road... Also took out sagging in rear end.

These shocks are really heavy duty units. They were half again as "beefy" as the stock shocks. They fit my 2003 Ford E350 Super-Duty box truck perfectly. People who say they don't fit their application are more than likely not going thru all the steps you may need to do to get them to fit. On a lot of shocks I have installed over the years the shock comes "compressed" with a band around the ends to hold it that way until you get one end installed, you then cut the band and guide the upper end in the hole as it expands. These do NOT come compressed so thats where a lot of people are going to struggle (as I did at first). You are NOT going to compress these shocks by hand to get them to fit-just not possible. I had to jack the frame of the truck up until the tires were off the ground about an inch (still not enough to get them in and THEN take a huge bar and wedge between the frame and the leaf springs and pry down to get the distance I needed and then they went right in ( make sure you put the top part of the shock in first before doing all the rest I described). I'm anxious to take the truck for a test drive to see how these perform but compared to the ones I took off I'm sure it should be a HUGE difference.

After 6 years it’s still good. Highly recommend it to anyone

I just put these on my 2002 E350 Super Duty, as you can see from the pic the old shocks were shot. These new ones are high quality, and VERY BEEFY. They went on pretty easy, and gave me about an inch or so of added lift. The ride has improved tremendously, I am very happy with these new shocks. Plus the current price on Amazon is ridiculously cheap for a shock of this caliber. These are much nicer than an other brand in this price range.

Bought for 29” Winnebago Motorhome and they worked well

Installed on my cube van that runs loaded with equipment, makes a big difference in handling over stock

great quality , sturdy build , great transaction ,
