95 Aurora Strut and Shock Recommendation Needed

95 Aurora w/ 65K. Looks like it's about time to replace the struts and shocks. I've used the Monroe recommended parts on my 99 Park Avenue but not sure if there's a better choice for the Aurora. Any recommendations? Thanks Dan

Re: 95 Aurora Strut and Shock Recommendation Needed

I had my originals on there until 180k. What makes you think you need new ones? The basic choices are Monroe Sensatracks, KYB GR2 or Delcos for the front strut. I put the monroes on. For the rear the choices are Monroe and Delco if you want to keep the air leveling system.

Re: 95 Aurora Strut and Shock Recommendation Needed

thanks ... rear shocks seem to be leaking down slowly over time and i figure that after 14 years now might be a good time to change all four corners ...

Re: 95 Aurora Strut and Shock Recommendation Needed

Rear shocks are easy. 45 minute job. I would do those now. The longer the rears leak the harder the air compressor needs to work. You don't want that to blow out. You could also remove the fuse temporarily until you get the rears fixed.

The fronts are struts which are a much more involved job (read as more $$$ + time = more $$$) and you will need an alignment when done.

Not trying to sway you from taking care of the fronts, but I would definitely do the rears.
