Smooth out the ride and keep the rear tires planted with the Monroe OESpectrum Suspension Shock Absorber 5893, a rear-position damper designed to help restore the original factory drivability and handling of the 1984-1987 Chevrolet Corvette. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the listed application. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full details.
- Handling and control: Full displaced valving tuned specifically to each vehicle adjusts to road extremes, while the larger bore provides more efficient damping control for a consistent, smooth ride.
- Reduced NVH: The Twin Technology Active Control System is designed to deliver control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
- Control and durability: A PTFE-banded piston provides consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability.
- Consistent ride: OE all-weather fluid carries special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown, and the nitrogen gas charge helps maintain tire-to-road contact by reducing aeration and shock fade.
A self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces friction against the piston rod to help limit premature wear. Backed by Monroe's Limited Lifetime Warranty and Feel the Difference Guarantee.
