ACDelco Specialty 519-2 Spring Assisted Shock Absorber

Love these shocks there more than I expected took me less than a hour to install, lifted the back end up a good inch and a half and can't tell much of a different in driving although I do have about 300 lb worth of tools and juck in my toolbox, in the end great buy great price. If your lookin to get a little less sag when towing or hauling this is probably the easyest add on out there

VERY impressive! 1989 Toyota that I've taken very good care of that needed a "little" help in tha back. Been debating new leaf springs but finding the right ones, or having them made, is a little of an issue since they don't have proper arch to measure anymore. These bolted right on in just a few minutes. Did before and after pictures and sure enough, the bed is 2.5"-2 3/4" higher now. The ride isn't horrible at all considering it is a truck. Empty bed and it's fine as well. This is a pick-up, not a Lexus so I'm not sure what some people expect here.. I'll update this review after a few thousand miles and see what they settle down inch-wise after being put to "work". I've been known to overload this truck by hundreds of pounds so this will be a true "abuse" test. Before and after pictures are uploaded to see for yourself.

Installed in a 1993 Toyota pickup. Great fits and fuction.

Took care of the bouncing issues. Really wish I would have replaced them a year ago when I knew they were shot!I look forward to seeing how it handles cargo in the box and towing a loaded small utility trailer.Thanks,I would recommend these. Like the added coil spring, as this will only help with a load.

This is the second pair I have installed. A full set of 4 on my 1996 Dodge B2500 Van which worked wonders on the ride. It minimized the side to side floating/swaying. I installed these 2 shocks on the rear of my 1998 Nissan Frontier XE Ext Cab RWD. (Unfortunately they do not make them for the front). It raised the rear end 1-3/4" on each side. If you own a older Toyota or Nissan small pick up you know not only do the shocks wear out but also the leaf springs weaken over time. These shocks are great to counter the weakened leaf springs. I recommend using 1500lb leaf spring helpers along with these shocks to completely fix this.

Shocks worked very well. Thanks

I had them installed in about 45 mins.So far great product ..

Used these on my 2004 Frontier. Top of shock touches frame rail. Had to remove shocks to install 3/16” spacers and fabricate 3/16” extensions tubes for top shock mounts to gain minimal space from frame rail while maintaining the proper compression of the shock rubbers. Remember, the mounting nuts must be torqued down while the rubber insulators must retain their proper shape to function correctly. Had enough threads to get away with it but was still a kind of Jerry Rig. Ride quality is good though when maneuvering around bends in hilly areas they to be noisy, springing, creaking kind of noise. Ride height was increased 1 1/2 to 2 inches, enough to keep my Reese receiver from dragging on dips with and without trailer loads. Still, for the price they’re fine, just know you’ll have to have some mechanical engineering skill and machinist tools to make them work.
