Smooth out the ride and keep your rear tires planted with the Monroe Shocks & Struts OESpectrum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 5541. It installs as a direct-fit rear damper for the 2014-2019 Kia Soul — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. Designed to help restore the vehicle's original factory drivability, this OESpectrum shock dampens body motion while helping filter out noise, vibration and harshness for confident everyday control.
- Twin Technology Active Control System: delivers control under most driving conditions while helping isolate impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
- Full displaced valving & larger bore: tuned to the vehicle and adjusts to road extremes, with a larger bore for more efficient damping control and a smooth, consistent ride.
- PTFE-banded piston: provides consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
- Nitrogen gas-charge & OE all-weather fluid: helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, with additives to assist in extreme temperatures and reduce oil breakdown.
A self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and helps reduce friction against the piston rod. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee. Sold individually; replacing both rear shocks together is recommended for balanced ride and handling.
