    Product Details

    GasSLX™ Rear Driver or Passenger Side Heavy Duty Adjustable Shock Absorber (89443) by Gabriel®. Quantity: 1 per Pack. Fleet operators understand the value of a high-quality shock absorber.

    Installation

    Gabriel® - Instruction Sheet

    Each pre-assembled ReadyMount strut comes with the upper strut mount, strut bumper, strut boot, coil spring, spring seat and a premium strut featuring advanced G-Force™ Technology, to provide the highest quality and performance.

    Not all manufacturers test their assemblies and engineer their products to the same tight tolerances and precision specifications as Gabriel, but in brand believe it’s the right thing to do. You’d expect nothing less from the company that created the original automotive shock absorber in 1907 – and neither do we.

    Better Than Air Ride?
    Quoted $1500 for air ride to fix my sag when fully packed out. Came across these for 10% the price and they actually work extremely well! If you’re on the fence; jump the fence and buy these! You won’t regret it.

    Good Shock With Versatility.
    Nice handling shock. Very helpful to be able to adjust the load handling and/or ride height. I installed the airline's filler fitting in the rear hatch's covered space, just above the left taillight where it's convenient. However, one big bump (with about 40# PSI in the shocks) caused the airline to blow a hole. It was repairable, but perhaps using larger/tougher air lines is advisable.

    Great Replacement Quick Struts but......
    Ordered set for the front end of a 2010 Volkswagen golf. Installation was fairly straightforward with no issues, HOWEVER, even after two weeks of driving on the new struts, the car sits approximately an inch and a half higher than the old shocks. I understand that the old shock were almost 10 years old and that that new shocks would likely sit a bit higher, perhaps a half inch or so. But not an inch and a half. Would have given more stars if not for this issue.

    Worked Great for Me
    The product was a perfect fit, and at a price I most certainly appreciated on my 22 yr old car. They came nicely packaged. When I get ready to do the front I'll probably buy Gabriel for the front too.

    Good Stock Replacement, Good Price.
    Bought these to replace my Fiesta shocks that had 83K miles on them and were found to be leaking fluid. 0 instructions came with these, but after a quick YouTube search to see what we were up against, installing them was pretty simple. Hardest part was having dirt fall on you from under the wheel well. These feel a little stronger and more professional than the originals did. Time will tell how they hold up. No significant advantage over stock as far as performance, due to being in the rear of the vehicle and me not driving hard. On the plus, theyre not quite as rigid as the originals were when they were new.
