Level out your ride under load with the Monroe Max-Air Rear Air Shock Absorber MA791. This air-adjustable rear shock drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1979-1985 Buick Riviera, 1979-1985 Cadillac Eldorado, 1980-1985 Cadillac Seville, and 1979-1985 Oldsmobile Toronado — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details. Ideal for hauling, it's built to help hold level ride height when you add weight.

  • Maintain ride height under load: The air chamber can be inflated or deflated up to 150 PSI to help maintain level height with additional weight up to 1,200 lbs (capacity is limited by suspension, tires and transmission — see the owner's manual).
  • Easy to adjust: A special air fitting resists air leakage and ties into the factory system where applicable, or inflates manually with an air compressor.
  • Exceptional handling: Full-displaced valving on compression and extension cycles is designed for a smooth ride.
  • Built to last: A hardened, precision-ground piston rod and sintered iron piston support durability, while a lubricated air sleeve reduces friction for smooth operation.

OE all-weather fluid contains special modifiers to handle extreme temperatures and help reduce friction. Sold as a pack of 2 for a complete rear-axle replacement.
