What does this shock absorber do?
It's a rear suspension shock absorber that dampens spring and suspension movement to help control ride motion. This custom-valved unit replaces an aged OE rear shock to help restore ride comfort.
Which vehicles does the SK-3612 fit?
It fits the rear position on select 2016-2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE and 2017-2019 GLS models, including GLE43/63 AMG, GLE350D, GLS450/500/550 and GLS63 AMG. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level list.
Can this replace an air or electronic suspension shock?
Yes. It's designed as a passive alternative that converts an active air or electronic suspension setup to passive by replacing the aged OE shock with a custom-valved shock.
Is this a front or rear shock?
This is a rear suspension shock absorber. It is sold individually, so order two if you want to replace both sides of the rear axle.
Should I replace shocks in pairs?
Arnott recommends replacing in pairs for best results. Installing both rear shocks together helps keep damping balanced from side to side.
