    Ok after looking into the china shocks im going to say it should be a hard pass. I am still working on it but they are not mag shocks as listed. They are actually a very cheap made shock with a built in simulator. So all you are getting is a shock with a bypass. For a little more you are better...

    Rear View Mirror Lamps

    Did he check the fluid level. I recommend removing the fluid from the canister then removing the canister . check the inside with a fine tooth brush and fresh fluid. Do not use any spray cleaner . reinstall and fill to top.

    Jimmie - New Owner

    Yeah the trunk should stay open . the two gas shocks holds it up not the pump. If it does not stay up by itself it wears heavily on the pump.

    Shocks XLR

    Fiberglass springs really dont sag. They can break but look at the adjuster bolts and pads how much of the stud is thru the spring? Thats a lot of lowereing.
