Product Description
This rear shock top mounting is designed to secure the upper end of your vehicle's rear shock absorbers, helping to isolate road vibrations and maintain proper suspension alignment. Constructed from moulded rubber, it features two mounting holes and a central cylindrical section to absorb road shocks and reduce noise.
Fitment is compatible with selected models from Chevrolet, Nissan, and Renault, including popular models such as the Chevrolet Aveo, Sonic, Nissan Qashqai, X-Trail, and Renault Koleos. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
