• Uneven ride control from a fatigued rear shock

Installation Notes

Verify rear fitment by year and model before installation. Compare the compressed length, extended length, stroke length, and E2 mount dimensions to the removed part to confirm proper replacement. Inspect surrounding suspension components, bushings, and mounting points during service so the new shock can operate as intended.
