Shock absorbers are without a doubt the brains of your suspension. Nothing influences how your car rides and handles more than its shock absorbers. Their primary function is to control the oscillations of your car’s springs thereby keeping your tires in contact with the road. To best accomplish that objective, Ridetech shock absorbers utilize a monotube design which allows for a larger piston and more precise valving. The same superior design is utilized in our RQ-S shocks, taking advantage of better damping and reliability over a conventional twin tube shock design. Ridetech RQ-S Shocks include a 1.5″ steel body, twenty four position rebound adjustability, heavy-duty half-inch shock shafts and carry a best-in-industry 1,000,001 mile warranty.
