What is the main job of a shock absorber?

A shock absorber's main job is to control the energy stored in your vehicle's suspension springs. It manages how quickly the springs compress and rebound, preventing excessive bouncing after hitting bumps for a more stable ride.

What does 'velocity-sensitive valving' mean for this shock?

Multi-stage velocity-sensitive valving means the shock absorber adjusts its damping force based on how fast the suspension is moving. This allows for more precise control over both small road imperfections and larger impacts.

Does this shock absorber come with everything needed for installation?

This shock absorber includes red polyurethane bushings and a red protective boot. However, it is always recommended to refer to the vehicle's service manual or consult a mechanic to ensure all necessary mounting hardware and any specialized tools are available for installation.
