2002 Nissan Pathfinder Front Shock and Struts

Designed to restore a vehicle’s original factory drivability and performance, Monroe® OESpectrum® struts provide an exceptional level of handling precision and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.

Product Features:

• REDUCED NOISE, VIBRATION AND HARSHNESS — Twin Technology Active Control System delivers exceptional control under most driving conditions while isolating impact-related noise, vibration and harshness
• EXCEPTIONAL HANDLING — Rod displaced valving, tuned specifically to each vehicle, adjusts to road extremes to provide consistency and a smooth ride (on most applications)
• CONSISTENT RIDE — OE all-weather fluid contains special additives to assist with extreme temperatures and help reduce oil breakdown
• CONTROL AND DURABILITY — Fluon-banded piston provides consistent sealing between piston and pressure tube for better control and increased durability
• IMPROVES PERFORMANCE — Nitrogen gas charge maintains tire-to-road contact for improved ride and handling by reducing aeration (on most applications)
• LONGER SERVICE LIFE — Chrome-plated piston, bronze reinforced rod guide bearing and special single lip seal provide durability and longer service life (where applicable)
• OPTIONAL DUST BOOT/JOUNCE BUMPER — Protective dust boot reduces dirt and moisture, while jounce bumper reduces severe suspension movement (both sold separately)
• Special Dust Boot/Jounce Bumper: Protective dust boot reduces dirt and any moisture build-up. Jounce bumper helps prevent severe suspension movement. Dust boot & jounce bumper sold separately.
