Patrick Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 143,000 miles on the Pathfinder and its time for new shocks. Any recommendations? I don't need anything crazy, just suspension tough enough for the crappy Maine roads. Also I do alot of highway driving I'm sure OEM would cost a fortune....

M in KC Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I'm very happy with my new Monroe Sensa-Tracs. I have similar driving conditions. The Show-Me States' roads rank amoung the nation's worst. I did all four for less than $125. You're on the money regarding OEM shocks they are stupid expensive. JMTC Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Monroe, KYB, Bilstein, Rancho, Pro-Comp, Trailmaster and Rancho all make shocks for your vehicle...depends on what brand you like or stand behind and how you like your vehicle to ride. The off-road oriented shocks will make for a more bumpy ride, but will control hard hits better than Monroes or KYB GR-2's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 I had the one down from the Monroe sensa-tracs, and they were great..again..all 4 for under $125. Now I am running the Rancho 5000 series, which are great too.. slightly stiffer ride (I did the JGC coil install), and I paid $80 for the 2 ranchos. Forget OEM... -bounce- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
