Re: 97' rear shock- Can replace w/ gas type?
The suspension (springs) were matched for the ALC struts. If you use some typical "gas struts" the rear will sag. Are the existing strut bladders (air bags) leaking? If not, you could install a manual fill kit (Monroe Part #AK29) which would allow you to manually fill the struts to the desired height. What caused the compressor to stop? Was it a blown fuse?
