Product Details

PRT Performance Ride 372316 is a rear suspension shock absorber engineered around the listed fitments and mounting points. The PRT Shock Absorber product line focuses on direct-fit suspension service parts, and this unit follows the OE-style mounting layout with a loop lower end and bolt upper end for the rear position. It is a non-adjustable, gas-charged shock with 8.86 inches of stroke, making it a practical replacement for worn rear dampers on the Kia Soul, Hyundai Accent, Kia Rio, and Kia Rio5.

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

What It Helps Address

• Rear-end bouncing after bumps or dips
• Excessive body movement over uneven pavement
• Reduced damping control from worn shock absorbers
• Rear suspension noise related to degraded shock performance
• Uneven ride quality at the rear of the vehicle

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear-position fitment before installation and match the mounting style to the vehicle’s original shock absorber. Confirm compressed length, extended length, and travel length against the existing part to ensure proper suspension geometry. Inspect the upper bolt mount and lower loop mount points for wear, corrosion, or damage before installing PRT Performance Ride 372316.
