Monroe Shocks & Struts Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:210050
Help keep your ride settled and your tires in contact with the road with this Monroe shock absorber for the rear axle, the Monroe Restore 210081. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2008 Chevrolet Astra and the 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima. It is designed to deliver consistent performance while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
As a rear suspension shock absorber, this unit dampens the up-and-down motion of the springs so the body doesn't keep bouncing after a bump. A rear shock may need replacing if you notice excessive bouncing or floating, the rear bottoming out over dips, fluid leaking from the shock body, or uneven tire wear.

Which vehicles does this Monroe rear shock absorber fit?
Monroe 210081 is listed for the rear of the 2000-2008 Chevrolet Astra and the 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
What does the nitrogen gas charge do?
The nitrogen charge helps reduce aeration and shock fade. That helps keep the tires in contact with the road for a steadier ride and better handling.
What is the banded piston for?
The banded piston helps reduce friction between the piston and the pressure tube. This lets the shock respond more smoothly to changing road surfaces.
What are signs my rear shocks may need replacing?
Common signs include excessive bouncing after bumps, the rear bottoming out, fluid leaking from the shock body, and uneven tire wear. Have the suspension checked first, since other worn parts can cause similar symptoms.
Should I replace both rear shocks at the same time?
Replacing shocks in pairs on the same axle is generally recommended. It helps both sides damp evenly for balanced handling.
