Rear Strut Assembly for 2018 Subaru Outback - Focus 1355004

Help steady the rear of your Outback over every bump with the Focus Auto Parts Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly, part number 1355004. This Focus Auto Parts suspension strut is a direct-fit replacement for the rear of the 2018 Subaru Outback. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment details.

A strut assembly does two jobs. The coil spring helps support the vehicle at that corner, and the strut dampens the spring's motion to help keep the tire in contact with the road. In this assembly the spring comes already fitted to the strut, so both are replaced as one unit and the original spring does not have to be moved over.

• Assembly type: suspension strut and coil spring assembly
• Position: rear
• Application: 2018 Subaru Outback

A rear strut may need replacing if you notice any of these signs:

• excessive bouncing after bumps
• a rear end that sits lower than normal
• fluid leaking from the strut body
• knocking noises over rough pavement
• uneven tire wear

These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the suspension before ordering. Struts are commonly replaced in pairs across an axle for balanced handling. Having the wheel alignment checked after installation is also good practice.
