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

FCS 342493 is a fitment-specific replacement shock absorber for rear suspension service. Confirm compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original unit to ensure proper suspension travel and mounting alignment.
