About this part
Also known as
Air Strut
Air Shock
Pneumatic Suspension Strut
Air Spring Assembly
Air Ride Strut
Front Right Air Strut
What this part does
The air suspension shock strut integrates a pneumatic air bladder and a hydraulic damper into a single unit for the front right side of the chassis. Mounted between the body and the lower control arm, it dynamically adjusts the vehicle ride height and dampens road impacts based on inputs from the suspension control module. When this unit fails, usually due to a ruptured air bladder or leaking shock seals, the vehicle will sag on the passenger side. A severe leak forces the air suspension compressor to run constantly, which can lead to rapid compressor failure if the strut is not replaced.

Before you order
Verify that your vehicle is equipped with the factory adaptive air suspension system, as this strut cannot be installed on vehicles equipped with standard steel coil springs. This specific part number is strictly for the front right (passenger) side. Upon installation, the air suspension system must be properly recharged with nitrogen gas and the ride height must be recalibrated using a dealer-level diagnostic scan tool to prevent system errors.
