Detailed Description

Arnott AS-2163 is engineered for rear suspension applications that need a dependable replacement for electronic shocks without altering the vehicle’s control system.

This part number is a direct-fit rear air shock absorber for 1993-1996 Cadillac Eldorado, 1993-1996 Cadillac Seville, and 1994-1996 Cadillac DeVille rear applications.

This part cross-references Cadillac 22400526 for the same application.
