Rear Shock Absorbers
Shock absorbers reduce the shock that your suspension receives, especially when going over bumps or rough terrain. They keep unwanted spring motion at bay and help stabilize the vehicle by using coil springs and struts. Shock absorbers play an integral part in providing you a smooth ride.

- Uneven tire wear
- Car feels unstable when going over bumps
- Bouncing more than usual after going over bumps
- Oil leak from shock
- Worn shock bushings
