Smooth out the ride and keep your tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Rear Suspension Shock Absorber (MPN 5663). This rear-position damper is a direct-fit replacement for the 2010-2015 Chevrolet Cruze, 2016 Chevrolet Cruze Limited, and 2011-2015 Chevrolet Volt — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. It's designed to help restore the vehicle's original factory drivability and control while filtering out noise, vibration, and harshness.
- Reduced NVH: Twin Technology Active Control System delivers control across most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration, and harshness.
- Handling control: Full displaced valving is tuned to the vehicle and adjusts to road extremes, while a larger bore provides more efficient damping for a consistent, smooth ride.
- Durability: A PTFE-banded piston maintains consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
- Nitrogen gas-charge: Helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, and a self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces friction on the piston rod.
OE all-weather fluid contains additives to help with extreme temperatures and reduce oil breakdown. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
