Product Details

What It Helps Address

• Excessive rear bounce after bumps

• Uneven ride behavior from worn shock damping
• Rear-end instability during braking or cornering
• Noise or contamination concerns when the original dust shield is damaged

Installation Notes

Fits 2000-2007 Ford Focus, rear. Verify the loop-to-loop mounting style, compressed length, and extended length against the original shock before installation. Inspect the rear suspension bushings and mounting points for wear, and confirm the dust shield is positioned correctly during assembly. Part number 172372 should be matched to the listed rear application only.
