Information
Rear Shock Absorber Assembly (RH/LH) for Toyota SUV
This rear suspension damper keeps your Land Cruiser 100 planted and comfortable. It controls spring movement, reduces body bounce, and stabilizes heavy loads or towing. Without a healthy damper, the rear end can hop over bumps, braking distances grow, and ride comfort suffers.
Why you need it
Proper damping preserves tire contact with the road, protecting tires from cupping and keeping ABS/VSC systems working as designed. It also cuts body roll and squat for safer handling on and off road.
How it works
A piston moves through oil inside the tube; precisely tuned valves convert kinetic energy into heat. Gas charging prevents foaming, so damping stays consistent over corrugations, heat, and heavy loads.
What happens if itβs broken β οΈ
Signs include oil leaks, clunks, uneven tire wear, rear-end float at speed, and multiple bounces after a bump. Continued use risks damaged bushings, longer stops, poor trailer control, and chassis fatigue.
Install tips β
Replace in pairs, torque with the vehicle on its wheels, inspect mounts/bump stops, and avoid gripping the rod. Check alignment after suspension work.
