- Nitrogen gas charge: Helps maintain tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration and shock fade.
- Banded piston: Helps reduce friction between the piston and pressure tube, improving responsiveness to changing road surfaces for smooth operation.
- Validated performance: Designed and validated by Monroe for consistent performance.
- Engineering expertise: Engineered for quality you can count on.
As a suspension shock absorber, this unit dampens the up-and-down motion of the rear springs. That helps keep the tires planted and the body settled. Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing after bumps, rear-end sway or wallow, fluid leaking on the shock body, and uneven tire wear. If a worn shock is the cause, this MONROE rear shock absorber replaces it.
