Installation Notes and Tips
Verify rear suspension fitment by year, make, model, and notes before ordering. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. On Nissan Pathfinder applications, exclude ASA (Adjustable Shock Absorber) models. On Pontiac Bonneville applications, exclude Air Suspension models.
Quality Assurance
