Honda CRV RM1 Rear Shock Absorbers (2016)

Product Overview

Genuine Honda/Showa manufactured rear shock absorbers sourced from 2016 Japanese stock. These are the gold standard for owners who refuse to compromise on their SUV’s original luxury ride quality.

Performance in Detail:

• Twin-Tube Gas Pressure: Combines high-grade hydraulic oil with nitrogen gas to prevent “foaming,” ensuring consistent damping even during aggressive driving.

• Multi-Stage Valving: Automatically adjusts internal resistance based on the road—staying soft for city ripples and firming up for highway stability.

Key Pillars of Importance:

1. Eliminates “Tail-Wagging”: Keeps the rear end stable during high-speed lane changes, especially when the SUV is fully loaded.

2. Tire Life Extension: Prevents “camber wear” by keeping the rear tires perfectly vertical, saving you from KSh 40,000+ tire replacement costs.

3. AWD Optimization: Ensures rear tires maintain 100% contact with the tarmac, allowing the Intelligent AWD system to calculate power distribution accurately.

4. Cabin Noise Isolation: Features non-perished Japanese rubber bushings that act as silencers against road “thumps” and vibrations.

5. Hydraulic Heat Resistance: Built to handle the heavy weight of an SUV without the oil losing viscosity during long-distance trips.

6. Passenger Comfort: Specifically tuned to filter out jarring impacts for rear-seat passengers, making family trips more enjoyable.

7. OEM Fitment: Direct bolt-on with all clips and brackets in factory positions, ensuring a fast and secure installation by your mechanic.
