Hey man nice video, there's a guy before you and TH-cam did the model max, he tried the gas adjust he liked those. Then you put the monomax on, and he said I like these better LOL. So my question is what do you match up for struts in the front is it like monomax all the way around?, let me know my vehicle is in a 1500 Avalanche it is a 2009 Santa Fe 3.3 l V6 all-wheel Drive, and I like it the original shocks are in it and Springs up front when I got the vehicle from my brother-in-law's his old work vehicle I replaced the shocks and some tie rods years back, I think they put monroes in there. So like you I don't want body roll I got somebody real happy happening right now, I'd like to be able to go over some bumps and have s*** dampened right away no more control the better. You mentioned you don't know how those shocks would feel on a lighter vehicle I think mine's about 4,000 lb, but if I have passengers in people want rides I wanted to handle just as good even if it's loaded up with just stuff. Good video I'm sold let me know what you would match in the front, because I'm tired of driving like an old lady I really do take bumps very slow I go slow over train tracks right now because I got body roll, like you said it's never going to be a race car but I got to tell you, it looks like when you said it's not going to be a race car your body language kind of said it's as close as it's going to get though LOL. So let me know get back to me please appreciate the video what to match the rear shocks with in the front KYB obviously but yeah. Well cuz the engine being in the front two passengers in the front a lot more written a lot more weight on the front Etc. Also are the springs do they last as long as? The vehicle?, oh yeah, I was thinking of going with the KYB coilover, let me know what you think about that, and again which one you would match up with the monomax sorry for the novel cheers for now.
Cool truck. I have a set of these on a Jeep Cherokee and they are about the same, a lot stiffer than OE type. They have a more confident road feel. Mine were not easy to compress to get into place, I bet they were a real pain in the butt for ones on a 3/4 ton.
Does your Avalanche have the Autoride? And how are the shocks so far? what's your usual towing weight? sorry for all the questions but you have one of the only videos on these shocks
Are they smoke on the street I'll definitely won't go off road all I will do is tow my camper which is 5900 lb dry weight 7900 lb depending on what I stuff in her
About 30k miles on these so far. I like these shocks for hauling stuff around but do not like them as much as the bilsteins when I go off road. They seem to be on the stiff side.
the gas adjust are a step down in ride stiffness and increased comfort..the mono max are for work trucks towing and hauling
Thank you for taking your time filming and editing this review. I'm definitely gonna buy these

How are the monomax now in 2022? Hope 7 years are ok still.

Any updates
Does your Avalanche have the Autoride? And how are the shocks so far? what's your usual towing weight? sorry for all the questions but you have one of the only videos on these shocks
No on the autoride. Shocks are great but I only tow about 6,000 - 8,000 lbs.
Holy shit Zent how many vehicles do you own? Lmao
Are they smoke on the street I'll definitely won't go off road all I will do is tow my camper which is 5900 lb dry weight 7900 lb depending on what I stuff in her
were those bilstein from factory? or aftermarket and kinda worn out?
factory
I just purchased a 2500 Avalanche. Do you have an update on the KYB's? Thanks.
Uncomfortable off road but still holding up well. They seem to be a little on the stiff side.
How's the shocks held up so far are they still doing good
About 30k miles on these so far. I like these shocks for hauling stuff around but do not like them as much as the bilsteins when I go off road. They seem to be on the stiff side.
Are these good daily driver part time off road shocks!
they can handle offroad use no problem, might feel a lot of that trail chatter
you think they can work in a truck that is not a heavy duty ??
orange county fire department building :) lol i know where that place is :)
Norb J I was gonna say, that place looks familiar 😂
Nice neighborhood bud. Is it legal to work on your car in the driveway, Lol?
