Monroe Shocks & Struts Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly P/N:172303
$116.99

Take the guesswork out of your rear suspension repair with the Monroe Quick-Strut 172303 Rear Right Suspension Strut and Coil Spring Assembly. This preassembled unit bundles the coil spring, upper strut mount and strut into a single, ready-to-bolt-in package for the 2004-2009 Kia Spectra and 2005-2009 Kia Spectra5, mounting in the right-rear (passenger-side) corner. It's a complete strut and coil spring assembly, so there's no need for a spring compressor during installation.

  • Quicker, safer install: Everything needed for the corner arrives fully assembled in one unit — no separate spring compression step.
  • Restores ride height: The application-specific coil spring is calibrated to the OE design to help restore ride height and support the vehicle's weight.
  • Vehicle-specific design: Application-specific spring, mount and strut are fit checked and ride tested for ride and handling tuned to this vehicle.
  • Maintains control: Helps reduce body sway, vibration and road harshness for improved handling, while the premium upper mount supports smooth steering.
  • Rust resistance: A protective coating resists rust and corrosion and is salt-spray tested for the elements.

Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which vehicles does the Monroe 172303 fit?

It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2004-2009 Kia Spectra and 2005-2009 Kia Spectra5. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your exact vehicle.

What position on the vehicle is this strut for?

The 172303 is the rear right (passenger-side rear) unit. It installs in that single corner only.

Do I need a spring compressor to install it?

No. This Quick-Strut ships as a fully assembled unit with the coil spring, upper mount and strut preassembled, so no spring compressor is required.

What comes in the assembly?

It includes a preassembled upper strut mount, application-specific coil spring and strut in a single ready-to-install unit for this corner.

Should I replace both rear struts at the same time?

Replacing struts on the same axle as a matched pair is recommended for balanced ride and handling. This listing covers the rear right unit only; order a second for the other side.
