These are the Monroe 5558 that seem to have been on backorder everywhere...
Has anyone actually installed these on their Mirage yet? Just curious if they are any better than the stock rear shocks.

If not, I guess I'll be the first?

Better hurry, it looks like they only have 167 in stock!

I think I am going to order a set of these as well as the KYB front struts they show. I have decided to go through this car and give it a real freshening up this spring. New coolant, flush the brakes, new heater core, new shocks/struts, fresh gear oil, buff the paint out, deep clean the interior, etc, etc.
My Mirage will have about 170k by then...and it deserves some extra love. Of course, it will probably get totaled right after I do all this.

If you order from Rock Auto and can't turn a wrench, it could be difficult finding a shop to put them in for you I believe?

I'm going to call around and see whose willing to warranty a Rock Auto part or do non-warranty work. I suck at machines unless it's an organic machine lol and I don't trust myself to do the job with absolute certainly in installation.
