Smooth out the ride and keep your tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber 5609. It's a direct-fit rear damper for the 2006-2011 Acura CSX and 2006-2011 Honda Civic (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment), designed to help restore the vehicle's original factory drivability and handling precision while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.
- Reduced NVH: the Twin Technology Active Control System delivers control across most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
- Exceptional handling: full displaced valving is tuned to the vehicle and a larger bore provides more efficient damping for a consistent, smooth ride.
- Control and durability: a PTFE-banded piston provides consistent sealing between piston and pressure tube, and OE all-weather fluid carries additives to help resist extreme temperatures and oil breakdown.
- Improved performance: a nitrogen gas charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, while a self-lubricating fluid seal helps reduce premature wear.
Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.

What vehicles does the Monroe 5609 fit?
It's a rear suspension shock absorber for the 2006-2011 Acura CSX and 2006-2011 Honda Civic. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm engine-level fitment for your exact vehicle.
Is this a front or rear shock?
The 5609 is cataloged as a rear suspension shock absorber.
Should I replace both rear shocks at once?
This listing is for one shock. Replacing both sides of the axle together as a matched pair is recommended for balanced, even ride control.

Common signs include excessive bouncing after bumps, nose dive when braking, uneven or cupped tire wear, and fluid leaking from the shock body. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
What makes the OESpectrum design different?
It uses full displaced valving tuned to the vehicle, a larger bore for efficient damping, a PTFE-banded piston, OE all-weather fluid, and a nitrogen gas charge to help maintain tire-to-road contact.
