The EFS Elite Rear Shock Absorber (36-5487) is purpose-engineered for classic lightweight 4WDs like the Suzuki Sierra / Samurai SJ / LJ 410–413 leaf-spring models (non-tray back). As part of the EFS Elite Series, it balances comfort and control to suit vehicles running 50–65 mm lifts, offering improved stability and ride quality on and off the road.
With an open length of 494 mm and a closed length of 310 mm, the 36-5487 delivers optimal wheel travel and consistent damping response. Its EB1 top and EB1 lower mounts ensure easy OE-fit installation and secure mounting for leaf-spring rear suspensions. Inside, a 35 mm piston and 16 mm hardened-chrome shaft operate within a 51–60 mm twin-tube body pressurised with nitrogen gas for fade-free damping and exceptional longevity.
