Arnott SKE-5713 Suspension Shock Absorber - Rear

Rear Electronic Shock for Defender 110 and 90

Arnott SKE-5713 is a rear electronic shock absorber for 2020-2025 Land Rover Defender 110 and 2021-2025 Land Rover Defender 90 models equipped with factory air suspension. It uses active electronic damping to respond to changing road and driving conditions, helping maintain controlled ride quality at the rear axle.

Built as a gas-charged, single-tube replacement shock, this Arnott eRide Adaptive Ride Control unit is designed for direct rear-position service on the Land Rover Defender L663 platform. The included polypropylene dust boot, mounting hardware, and isolators support durability and quieter operation in daily driving and off-road use.

Product Details

Arnott eRide Adaptive Ride Control focuses on electronically managed suspension components for vehicles that rely on factory air suspension and adaptive damping. SKE-5713 follows that approach with a rear shock absorber engineered for the 2020-2025 Land Rover Defender 110 and 2021-2025 Land Rover Defender 90. The monotube-style gas-charged design helps maintain consistent damping response, while the rear-specific fitment supports proper suspension behavior on the Defender L663 platform. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Rear shock leakage or loss of damping control
• Electronic damping faults tied to worn rear shock hardware
• Excessive rear bounce, harshness, or unsettled ride quality
• Noisy rear suspension operation from worn mounts or isolators
• Reduced ride consistency on Defender 110 and Defender 90 rear suspension systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear-position fitment before installation on the Land Rover Defender 110 or Defender 90. This shock is for vehicles equipped with factory air suspension and eRide Adaptive Ride Control. Inspect related suspension components, electrical connections, and mounting points before replacing the shock absorber, and confirm the lower loop bearing and upper stud plate interfaces are clean and properly seated during installation. SKE-5713 should be matched to the vehicle’s exact configuration, excluding Hybrid and 130 variants.

Quality Assurance

Arnott manufactures this rear electronic shock absorber as part of its eRide Adaptive Ride Control line for adaptive suspension service. The gas-charged, single-tube construction, rear-specific mounting design, and included protective components are intended to support consistent operation and long-term durability in the Defender’s rear suspension system.
