I just replaced the shocks on my 2004 IFS with a set of Monroe Gas Magnum's and so far I'm very happy with them. They've given me a slightly stiffer ride but more importantly, they only cost me R1300 for the set of 4 :thumbup:

If you drive with light loads most of the time, fit Monroe in front and Gabriel gas safari's at the back.

For heavier loads, fit Monroe Front and back.

Hi Brett,

Where did you get your Monroes for only R1350 for the set? That is a real bargain!
