Can anybody give us a part list on aftermarket shocks for all the mini trucks. I read some forums that say Monroe or Napa shocks will fit them but there are no part #'s. Thanks Torrey Tallahassee Mini Trucks
sorry for the off topic here. But do you have a place in Tally. Been meaning to ask that question. I used to service the hematology equipment at the VA clinic up until a few months ago. And thought it would be useful to have someone close by that has the same likes as I do
Been meaning to ask if you have a place in Tally. Would be nice to know that there is someone close by that has the same sickness...errr interest as I do
Gimme some dimensions and pictures of both ends of the shock. I'll find a Monroe replacement (if one exists.) EDIT: Looks like Monroe has "Mounting and Size Charts" on their website. The PDF pages are identical to our catalog. Colin (Counterman, Auto Value)

I have installed monroe's on a suzi and 2 mitzis, they are monroe 200 and they come with inserts that bolt right up to the minis with more travel for the lifts. I will chack mine tonight and post part number tomorrow morning.
Thanks dwink thanks alot the part # would help us out alot especially on the suzuki's Torrey Tallahassee Mini Trucks
I'm sorry it took so long to get the info. The shocks are Monroe 3100's. They come with inserts to fit right on mitzis and suzis.
I also made a set of Monroe's work on my '95 Suzuki. The part # on the box was 59304. I saw in an earlier post to ask for '90 model Datsun P/U shocks at the parts house. I had to take 3: 2" x 5/8" fender washers and place them over the top mounting stud. This was to space the larger diameter shock a little farther away from the frame. I then took 2: 1/2" I.D. x 5/8" O.D.x1-1/2" long brass bearing sleeves. I got them at ACE in their small parts bins to use inside each mounting ring on the shocks. Works perfect. RECAP: 6 ea.-5/8 fender washers 2" diameter. 3 for each top mounting stud. 4 ea.-5/8" outside diameter x 1/2" inside diameter x 1-1/2" long brass bearing sleeves.- These will slide into the larger mounting eyes of the shock and take up the difference in the diameter of the 13mm studs. 2 ea.-1990 Datsun P/U shocks. Number on box is 59304.
With the monroe 3100's you don't have to buy the inserts they come with all the hardware and bolt right in.
part # darin Daihatsu: Monroe part #32207 Mitsubishi: Napa Respose #94009 Suzuki: We have yet to find the part #. We can make shocks fit but prefer to find some that will fit without any modifications to the truck. Can anybody give us the part # for the Monroe 3100 shocks (rear shocks)for a Suzuki Carry? Thanks Torrey Tallahassee Mini Trucks
I went to my local AutoZone auto parts store, and had them run a cross referance to the Monroe # 32207 listed here on this form. They came up with a Gabriel shock.. Part # 81676 to replace the rear shocks on my 2001 Daihatsu. I will go back this week and try to cross referance the fronts. The rears have a wider body, and a tad longer.. Mounted up EZ.. My stockers would stay at any length you pulled them to.. if you compressed them.. thats where they would stay.. So I'm sure they were worn out... the new ones spring back to full length from compressed. I paied $15.99 each I can email pics, of the stock and new Gabriel's.. off truck and on truck.. Chris.. topherztoyz@msn.com
If the new shocks were "gas" shocks that is why the extend to full length on there own, and conversly if your old shocks were not "gas" shocks then they would stay put where ever they last were positioned. I'm not saying your old shocks didn't need replacing just pointing out the difference between gas and non-gas shocks.
Can you please confirm the Monroe 3100. Maybe it's me but I can't seem to find a Monroe 3100 anywhere.. Thank you.
I cabbaged onto a set of coilover shocks of a sportsman 500 and put them on the rear of a hijet. Free length was the same but I had to add space the top mount out to allow clearance between the spring and the frame.
That interchanges to a Monroe "Monromatic Plus" 32164, for what it's worth. Monroe part numbers are typically five digits. Are you referring to a 31000? If so, we've got 'em in stock right here for $22.69/ea. Colin
Has anyone come up with a shock part number for the rear of a Suzuki Carry?, say 1991 model. I know several people including myself have asked and so far I have not seen anything, or I have missed it.
MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, MONROE 31000, I'll post a picture of the box with part number if I get a chance. These work on Mitzis, Suzis, and probably others as well.
Somewhere I had asked about the 31000 number and was told that was a series number,who knows.At least now I know what I need.
I'm not sure but the the end of the box says: "MONROE 31000" no other numbers. I'll post a picture if I get a chance.
For what it's worth on the Monroe #32164, for the rear of the Mitsu, the body is very close to the u-bolt plate and will get hit when the truck is articulating full droop on one side and full compression on the other. I do have the correct washers on the studs first. The sleeve took the hit, I think the body itself is fine. After the last weekend with them, I think that they'll last with the small dent in them for quite a while. Greg
