The Monroe 210206 rear shock absorber for the 1993-2002 Nissan Quest and 1993-2002 Mercury Villager damps the bounce of the rear springs and filters out noise, vibration and harshness from the road.
- Part of the Monroe Restore line, built to give a high level of handling and control.
- Nitrogen gas-charge keeps the tires in contact with the road by reducing aeration and shock fade, for improved ride and handling.
- Banded piston helps reduce friction against the pressure tube, so the shock responds to changing road surfaces and operates smoothly.
- Designed and validated for consistent performance.
A worn suspension shock absorber can let the back of the van bounce or float after bumps, sway in turns or wear the rear tires unevenly. Tired springs, bushings and tires can bring on similar handling, so with the van parked and the engine off, look behind each rear wheel for oil on the shock body or torn eyelet bushings first.
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-2002 Nissan Quest and 1993-2002 Mercury Villager. Each listing is one shock, and rear shocks are normally replaced on both sides at the same time, so plan on ordering two for your van.
