Description

Monroe OESpectrum 5868 Suspension Shock Absorber

Designed to restore a vehicles original factory drivability and performance, Monroe OESpectrum passenger car shock absorbers provide an exceptional level of handling precision and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.

Features

REDUCED NOISE, VIBRATION AND HARSHNESS -- Twin Technology Active Control System delivers exceptional control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness
EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING -- Full displaced valving, tuned specifically to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes while the larger bore provides more efficient damping control to provide consistency and a smooth ride
CONTROL AND DURABILITY -- PTFE-banded piston provides consistent sealing between piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability
CONSISTENT RIDE -- OE all-weather fluid contains special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown
IMPROVES PERFORMANCE -- Nitrogen gas-charge maintains tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration and shock fade
BUILT TO LAST -- Self-lubricating fluid seal retains gas and reduces excessive friction against the piston rod to help reduce premature wear
BUY WITH CONFIDENCE -- Comes with Monroes Limited Lifetime Warranty and exclusive Feel the Difference Guarantee

Customer Questions

Is It OK To Drive With Bad Struts?

Driving with bad struts is unsafe. Car bounces while driving. Replace them immediately. Shop struts on PartsHawk.com.

How Can I Tell If My Struts Need To Be Replaced?

If your car bounces excessively, experiences poor handling, or has uneven tire wear, you may have bad struts. Check for signs of bad struts like nose dive during braking. Shop for replacement shocks and struts on PartsHawk.com.

What Do Your Struts Do?

Car struts are essential for smooth driving. They support the weight of the vehicle, dampen shocks, and provide stability. Replace worn out struts on a car with quality products from PartsHawk.com.

What Do Your Shocks Do?

Car shocks absorb impact from bumps and uneven road surfaces, improving ride comfort and handling. It's recommended to replace shocks every 50,000 miles for optimal performance. Shop shocks for your car at PartsHawk.com.
