Detailed Description

Monroe Restore 210262 is a rear suspension shock absorber engineered for direct replacement service on compatible Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator applications. The design uses a passive, twin-tube layout with progressive valving to help maintain ride control over changing road conditions. Its steel body, painted finish, and gas-charged construction support consistent operation in everyday driving.

This part number 210262 features loop (eyelet) bushing and sleeve mounts at both ends, a 15 mm rod diameter, and a 160 mm shock stroke. The Monroe Restore line focuses on restoring handling feel and reducing harshness without adding adjustable damping or air suspension features.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Rear-end bounce or excessive oscillation.
• Reduced control over bumps and uneven pavement.

• Loss of ride stability during normal driving.
• Suspension wear that affects handling response.
