Maxitrac shocks

The telling information would be WHO makes Maxitrac. Catchy names aren’t necessarily ones which mean quality or long life or a high degree of performance. Since the Monroe’s have snapped a bolt off it indicates the bolt may be sus or not up to the required grade. Also, if the bush is stuffed and the force is delivered repeatedly to only the centre of the bolt the 10mm dia bolt won’t last long. There is a lot of factors in failures so that has to be considered as well as seeking decent well acting shocks. I personally went off Monroe many years ago because of the mass produced average quality. Maxitrac I have no experience with or who makes them. Best to find out first.

Lol! Made in China for Repco according to this 2006 post .....

I threw my 2011 Dmax KYC OE shocks away at 5000km, beautiful looking, no leaks, rubbers ok etc etc, they just did not control the body mass and suspension movement oscillations. Most people probably don't realize modern vehicle shocks are often rubbish, built to a price. Concrete warranty, just don't drive off the dealers concrete.
Many aftermarket shocks seem to be the same.
My Bilsteins have now performed over 40 times longer than the OE ones and still feel like when newly fitted.The vehicle will now handle well and has braking ability to. Unless your shocks actually work, ESC and ABS are almost rendered inoperable during the times you need those features the most because the wheels/tyres are not kept on the ground as much as possible. All safety systems above rely totally on the shock absorber performance to do their tasks.
The only thing I like about Monroe shocks is their slogan from years ago.

DON"T find you have worn shocks by "ACCIDENT"

HI
Look at your springs as well . Shocks and springs work as a package .
If your springs have gone soft this will load up/over work the shocker.
