Smooth out the ride and keep the rear wheels tracking with the Monroe OESpectrum Suspension Shock Absorber 37289, a rear-position shock designed to restore a vehicle's original factory drivability and ride control while filtering out impact-related noise, vibration and harshness. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2018 Toyota RAV4 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
- Exceptional handling: Full displaced valving, tuned to the vehicle, adjusts to road extremes, and a larger bore provides more efficient damping control for a consistent, smooth ride.
- Control and durability: A PTFE-banded piston maintains consistent sealing 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, while OE all-weather fluid with special additives helps handle extreme temperatures and reduce oil breakdown.
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. Sold individually; replace both rear shocks together as a matched pair for balanced ride control.
