Monroe is usually pretty good aftermarket but Motorcraft is owned by ford and is likely the most similar to what’s already on the vehicle for ya. It’s no race car or anything I would say the Monroe quick struts would be just fine! They’re still a big brand and for stock replacements I’ve never had a complaint
Pros: pretty good aftermarket
Cons: no complaints
New Monroe (factory supplier, found their stampings on the shocks) front shocks en route.
Pros: factory supplier
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Monroe OE Spectrum. It had better valving than what comes stock. Where I live it’s about 70-80 a pair so easy on the wallet and produces a nice smooth ride.
Pros: nice smooth ride
Cons: better valving needed
Monroe quick struts are what I used. Already assembled and took no time to replace.
Pros: easy to replace
Vehicle:
Honda
They did fine on the tire install I guess, though for some reason they took off my aftermarket chrome valve stem caps and put ****ty plastic ones on... pretty lame...
Pros: fine tire install
Cons: plastic valve stem caps
Vehicle:
Toyota Celica
If you live in a cold climate which has temperatures below freezing I would recommend staying away from Monroe if possible. They tend to become very sluggish when cold which makes for a very harsh ride.
Cons: sluggish when cold, harsh ride
Monroe struts tend to be of mediocre quality. For standard driving they're ok, but they don't really tolerate lowering springs well.
Pros: ok for standard driving
Cons: mediocre quality, don't tolerate lowering springs
Monroe is crap quality.
Cons: crap quality
I just put Monroes on all around and my truck rides like a Sherman tank.
Cons: rides like Sherman tank
