Would purchase again. *by on Reviewed in the United States September 8, 2025* Easy install and fits great, shock quality rides great, great price, build quality seems solid. No additional road noise. Not too soft but also not too firm, perfect for regular daily driving. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits my HHR *by on Reviewed in the United States May 23, 2023* Two of these just fixed my 55-65mph shake. Went on easy and the car drives and handles much better. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comfortable again *by on Reviewed in the United States November 22, 2025* I got these Monro-Matic Plus 33183 shocks for my 2007 Chevy Cobalt, because the original shocks were not stopping bounce and brake diving. I also got new springs so I wouldn't have to do multiple alignments.Together, these shocks make the Cobalt handle a little better than when it was new, being a little higher quality than the stock ones.If your Cobalt is getting bouncy on city streets, these are the shocks to get.They fit exactly like the originals, and help reduce somemof the road noise, too.At the current price I would get another set if I had an Impala or another Cobalt, because these are worth more than the price currently. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/137812862-monroe-monro-matic-plus-33183-suspension-shock-absorber-for-chevrolet](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/137812862-monroe-monro-matic-plus-33183-suspension-shock-absorber-for-chevrolet) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-18*
