i just recently replaced the shocks on my van and wanted to share some things with you all. i found that Monroe makes a line called sensatrac with load adjust. All the load adjust means is that each shock comes with a coilspring around it for extra support. I must say it has transformed my van. We all have some rather heavy eqiptment riding with us and if your shocks are worn out like mine i highly recomend these shocks . two thumbs up ------------- Refuse 2 Fail *Disclaimer Disclaimer* All of my comments are worthless and may lack spelling, punctuation, and detail. |

Is it you?? Can you not type more than one sentence on a post? If your van is overloaded shocks will do nothing.Those spring overs have been around for years for people who pull a trailor? They are a cheap a temparery solution to a permenent problem? ------------- Just My opinion |

$100 profit per glide X 500 glides/month = $50,000/month
Absolutly no problem covering monthly payments on 2 of these machines($3000/mo). They will do more work than the 3 raptor machines are doing now.
