Engineered with application-specific settings for the 3.6L V6 or 1.5L turbo setups, this 46mm shock absorbs impacts with fade-resistant operation, reducing body squat during acceleration and enhancing cornering poise without the harshness of stiffer aftermarket options. The zinc-plated steel body resists corrosion for long-term reliability in salted roads or wet climates, while the direct bolt-on fit integrates seamlessly with factory springs and mounts, providing Civic owners with a straightforward upgrade that sharpens overall dynamics compared to piecing together mismatched components from various sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMonotube Gas-Pressure Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides superior heat dissipation and consistent performance for stable handling in varied conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e46mm Piston Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delivers firm yet compliant damping tailored to Civic's lightweight chassis for responsive feedback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication-Specific Valving:\u003c\/strong\u003e Optimized for Sport, LX, EX, and Touring trims to balance comfort and control without lowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZinc-Plated Steel Body:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ensures corrosion resistance and durability against road salt, moisture, and debris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOE-Style Mounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct replacement using factory hardware for quick installation without modifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFade-Resistant Operation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintains damping force during extended drives or repeated impacts for reliable safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for rear OEM shocks pairs with Bilstein B6 front struts for complete setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with factory springs no impact on ride height or alignment when installed correctly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually order two for rear pair installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets or exceeds OE standards for emissions and safety compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard ground delivery lightweight design for cost-effective transit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBolt-on replacement using factory mounts and hardware no cutting or welding required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport rear suspension during removal torque lower bolt to 58 ft-lb and upper to 32 ft-lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerform wheel alignment after installation to ensure even tire wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with aftermarket sway bars test for any binding post-install\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTools required: Jack stands, 14mm\/17mm sockets, torque wrench, est. time: 45-60 min per side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThis Part Fits\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"width: 100%;
