REAR COIL-OVER SHOCK ABSORBER – STARTING 2012 MODEL YEAR
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
WARNING
• 2012 Model Year and newer vehicles equipped with 4-link rear suspension have different length
rear coil-over shocks than previous model years. To prevent altering the stability or handling of the
vehicle, never use these shocks on older models; likewise, never use shocks intended for older
models on 2012 and newer vehicles.
Standard models are equipped with rear shock absorbers and coil-over springs designed for standard-duty service.
Heavy-duty rear shock absorbers and coil-over springs are available as an option for heavy-duty service. The rear
standard-duty and heavy-duty shock absorbers are designed differently.
See following NOTE.
NOTE: All Model Years:
The standard-duty and heavy-duty rear shock absorber bodies look identical, but they are
different in design internally.
2012 Model Year and Newer:
The standard-duty rear coil-over springs and shocks are painted black.
Heavy-duty rear coil-over springs and shocks have shock housings painted black and springs painted silver.
When rear shock absorbers are installed, ensure both shock absorbers have identical part numbers.
The part number for standard-duty rear shock absorbers is different than the part number for heavy-duty rear shock
absorbers. Ensure that the correct rear shock absorbers and coil-over springs are used for the vehicle’s load service
option when the rear shock absorbers are removed and replaced.
