Smooth out the ride and keep the rear tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Suspension Shock Absorber 37289, a rear-position damper designed to restore a vehicle's original factory drivability and control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2018 Toyota RAV4 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for the engine-level fitment details).
- Exceptional handling: Full displaced valving, tuned specifically to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes while the larger bore provides more efficient damping control for consistency and a smooth ride.
- Control and durability: A PTFE-banded piston keeps sealing consistent between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
- Reduced NVH: The Twin Technology Active Control System delivers control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
- Nitrogen gas-charge: Helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.
OE all-weather fluid carries special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown, while a self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces friction against the piston rod to help limit premature wear. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee. Signs a rear shock may need replacing include excessive bouncing, nose dive, a harsh or wandering ride, and uneven tire wear.
