    Monroe® OESpectrum® series of shocks

    The Monroe® OESpectrum® series of shocks and struts feature the revolutionary, patented M-RTECH®2 Rebound Valving Technology™, which provides virtually instantaneous feedback and response to changing driving conditions for exceptional road-holding capability, a smoother ride and increased driver control and confidence. This technology is combined with our new high-speed Impact Control Valve. This, in turn, helps each OESpectrum unit deliver a unique blend of world-class control, and reduced noise, vibration and harshness (NVH).
