    Monroe Magnum 550055

    These shocks are listed on RockAuto as fitting a '03 CVPI. I know the Marauder has the rear air suspension but the shocks should theoretically fit, yes? I only ask because they are not actually listed on the RA catalog as fitting a Marauder.r

    Anyone here running them? How do you like them?

    Offhand, I’d think they would, but there MAY be a difference because of our rear air bags also lifting the car. (?)

    I have a set of KYB’s I got from Rockauto sitting in my garage. Unlike the last item I bought from them that didn’t come close to being the right part, and was actually something made for a model that isn’t even sold in the US, I hope they actually fit.

    Funny you'd mention that. I've never had an issue with RA. But my buddy is fixing a GMQ LS HPP that I'll be buying from him, and ordered a full complement of cooling system hoses. They sent him a totally incorrect kit, just this past week. Weird.

    It wouldn’t be so bad but they have zero customer service people to talk to, none (to “keep our prices down.”). They sent me a starter solenoid for a Nissan engine that is only sold in Latin America. When I tried to return it and specified the wrong part, the return form kept defaulting to that I just didn’t want it, so I ended up losing money.

    The first three years and 10 parts I ordered from them they had spot on, but as they’ve gotten bigger they seem to have more screw ups. The last few times I needed something I just went to Napa and paid more. At least I know it’s the right part.

    Keeping my fingers crossed they sent me the right shocks for the MM.
