Help keep the back of your car settled and composed over bumps with the SACHS shock absorber 030980, a rear unit that dampens spring motion to help keep the tires in contact with the road. It is a direct-fit replacement for the rear left and rear right positions on the listed Buick, Cadillac, Oldsmobile and Pontiac applications, from the 1995-1999 Buick Riviera through the 2006-2011 Cadillac DTS.
A worn rear shock may show up as excessive bouncing after bumps, rear-end sway or bottoming out, fluid leaking from the shock body, or uneven tire wear. Replacing SACHS rear shock absorbers in left and right pairs is recommended for even, balanced damping.
