The EFS Elite Rear Shock Absorber (36-5549) is purpose-built for high-lift Nissan Patrol GQ/GU and Toyota LandCruiser 70-Series vehicles that demand superior suspension control. Part of the EFS Elite Series, it provides exceptional comfort and handling for 4WDs equipped with heavy-duty or long-travel suspension systems.

Inside its 51–60 mm twin-tube nitrogen-gas body operates a 35 mm piston and 16 mm hardened-chrome shaft, delivering consistent damping, fade resistance, and long-term reliability under load and heat.
