I have a 2004 Nissan Armada in which the rear air shocks and compressor apparently blew out. Nissan wants you to take small mortgage to replace them, so I am going to replace them with regular shock absorbers or possibly some sort of struts.

Monroe says they don't make a replacement in regular shocks. I don't know whether anyone else does, so I will have to use good old Yankee Ingenuity.

Can anyone provide any ideas? Anywhere I can get the length of the existing shocks, without taking it out just to do this?

Come on America, I know someone out there has the answer for me. That's what Americans do- IMPROVISE! That's what makes this Country so great!

Are you sure the air portion of the old shocks weren't part of the load carrying ability of the system? Does the truck sit low now that they system isn't working?

KYB brand doesn't make them either. You might be SOL. Maybe you can find them used but who knows how long they will last?
