Monroe designs its Restore shocks to deliver consistent performance and a high level of handling and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.
- Nitrogen gas charge: Helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, supporting ride and handling.
- Banded piston: Helps reduce friction between the piston and the pressure tube. It is designed to improve responsiveness to changing road surfaces for smooth operation.
- Validated design: Designed and validated by Monroe for consistent performance.
- Expanded coverage: The Restore line covers domestic and import passenger cars, light trucks and SUVs.
As a suspension shock absorber, it helps control spring and suspension movement as the wheels travel over bumps. Signs a front shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose-dive under braking, fluid leaking from the shock body, and uneven tire wear. Replacing both front shocks together is commonly recommended for balanced handling.
