Monroe Shocks & Struts Suspension Shock Absorber P/N:210161
$21.99

Help keep your Jeep's rear end composed over rough pavement with the Monroe shock absorber 210161 from the Monroe Restore line. This rear shock is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, the 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee and the 1984-1990 Jeep Wagoneer. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.

Monroe designed its Restore shocks for consistent performance. They are intended to deliver a high level of handling and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.

  • Nitrogen gas charge: helps keep the tires in contact with the road by reducing aeration and shock fade, for improved ride and handling.
  • Banded piston: helps reduce friction between the piston and the pressure tube, making the shock more responsive to changing road surfaces for smooth operation.
  • Validated design: designed and validated by Monroe for consistent performance.
  • Rear position: cataloged for the rear of the listed 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee and 1984-1990 Jeep Wagoneer applications.

As a suspension shock absorber, it damps spring movement so the body settles after bumps rather than continuing to bounce. Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, fluid leaking from the shock body, rear bottoming out, and uneven tire wear. Replacing both rear shocks together is recommended for balanced handling.
