A rear shock absorber dampens the up-and-down motion of the springs, which helps keep the tires in contact with the road and the body steady. Signs a shock may need replacing include continued bouncing after bumps, rear-end sway or squat, fluid leaking from the shock body, and uneven tire wear. If a worn rear shock is the cause of these symptoms, this unit replaces it. Replacing both rear shocks together is recommended for balanced handling.
