Aftermarket Part
Aftermarket: Quality alternative. This is a quality alternative, designed to fit and function like the original part, often at a more competitive price.
Rear Shock Absorber for air-sprung rear suspension on vehicles built without Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE), part of the rear shock absorbers and springs assembly.

The rear air springs carry the load and set ride height; the damper controls the rate at which the suspension compresses and rebounds, restraining axle movement over uneven surfaces and limiting body movement under braking and cornering. A distinct damper is specified for ACE-equipped vehicles, so this unit is not interchangeable with the ACE variant.

Fitted in pairs, one per side.

Frequently asked questions

What is the RPD102363 rear shock absorber?
The RPD102363 is a rear shock absorber (damper) for the Discovery 2 with air suspension, without ACE (Active Cornering Enhancement). It damps the rear axle and works with the air springs to control ride height and body movement.
How do I know if I need the non-ACE rear shock?
Fit the RPD102363 only if your Discovery 2 has air suspension but no ACE. ACE cars use hydraulic anti-roll bars and need a different rear damper. Check for ACE pipes and a pump before ordering, since the non-ACE rear shock won't suit an ACE-equipped car.
How many rear shocks does a Discovery 2 need?
Two, one for each rear corner of the Discovery 2. This RPD102363 is sold individually. Changing dampers in axle pairs keeps rear handling balanced, since a worn shock on one side upsets stability and tyre wear.
Does the RPD102363 fit my Discovery 2?
The RPD102363 fits the Discovery 2 with air suspension and without ACE, VIN XA237290 to 2A999999. Confirm your VIN and that ACE is not fitted, since ACE cars and later builds take a different rear damper.
