$40.99
Smooth out the ride and keep the rear tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Suspension Shock Absorber 5850, a rear-position shock built to restore original factory drivability and control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1963-1982 Chevrolet Corvette — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine-level breakdown.
- Reduced noise, vibration & harshness: 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 paired with a larger bore for more efficient damping, consistency and a smooth ride.
- Control and durability: a PTFE-banded piston maintains consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
- Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid carries additives that help handle temperature extremes and reduce oil breakdown.
A nitrogen gas charge reduces aeration and shock fade to help maintain tire-to-road contact, while a self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and limits friction against the piston rod to help reduce premature wear. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee. Replace both sides together as a matched set for balanced rear ride control; sold individually.
