The rear strut/shock is the vertical thing; what is the sideways thing? Is it a dampener another shock? Should it be replaced, for some reason i always though it was a a shock. Feel like a newb asking this question but I've never seen it on any other car other than mustangs.

Also, I think im going with strange adjustable shock/struts, anyone feel like i should spend the extra cash and get something different.

That's the transverse or quad shock, it's not really needed. It's there for lateral movement.

ITs the quad shock. Absorbs wheel hop (so they tell us) Yeah replace them whenh you would replace the shocks.

Ok cool... i always thought it was another shock; just never seen them before.


Edit: i think im just gonna leave the stock ones on there. Everything else on the entire rear is being replaced but I guess ill just leave those.

If you ever decided to replace your upper and lower control arms, you can remove those quad shocks. Until then, keep them on!
