Monroe designed its Restore shock absorbers for consistent performance. They provide a high level of handling and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.
As a suspension shock absorber, it damps spring and body motion at the rear of the vehicle. Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, fluid leaking from the shock body, rear-end squat under acceleration, and uneven tire wear. Shocks on the same axle are commonly replaced as a pair for balanced handling.
