Smooth out the ride and tighten up handling with the Monroe OESpectrum Front Shock Absorber 5843. This front suspension shock is a direct-fit replacement for the 1979-1985 Buick Riviera, 1979-1985 Cadillac Eldorado, 1980-1985 Cadillac Seville, and 1979-1985 Oldsmobile Toronado. It's designed to help restore the vehicle's original factory drivability, delivering handling precision and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.
Twin Technology Active Control System: works to isolate impact-related noise, vibration and harshness for controlled response under most driving conditions.
Full displaced valving: tuned to the vehicle, and a larger bore provides efficient damping control for a consistent, smooth ride.
PTFE-banded piston: maintains consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and added durability.
Nitrogen gas-charge: helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade, while OE all-weather fluid contains additives to handle extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown.
A self-lubricating fluid seal retains the gas charge and reduces friction against the piston rod to help limit premature wear. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
It's a front shock absorber for the 1979-1985 Buick Riviera, 1979-1985 Cadillac Eldorado, 1980-1985 Cadillac Seville, and 1979-1985 Oldsmobile Toronado. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
Is this a front or rear shock?
This is a front suspension shock absorber, per the catalog position for the listed applications.
What are the signs my shock may need replacing?
Excessive bouncing, nose dive during braking, a floaty or harsh ride, and uneven or cupped tire wear can be signs a worn shock may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before replacing.
Is this shock gas-charged?
Yes. It uses a nitrogen gas-charge that helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade for improved ride and handling.
Should I replace shocks in pairs?
Shocks are sold individually. It's good practice to replace the front pair together for balanced, even handling on both sides.
