Overview

Keep the drive tandem planted with this Sachs OE Rear Drive Axle Shock Absorber for Volvo trucks, distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires. Sachs is a factory damper supplier to Volvo, so this unit damps the suspension over the drive tandem and keeps the load settled on rough road exactly the way the chassis was engineered to behave. Tired shocks bring on a bouncy or floaty ride, cupped drive tires, and extra cab and frame motion over bumps and dips - the kind of wear that quietly eats a set of drives long before anything actually breaks. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

Drive Tandem Control: The Sachs OE Volvo Shock Advantage

This is a hydraulic twin tube, oil unit that matches the original ride rate rather than a gas-charged substitute. It runs 25 3/8 in extended and 15 3/4 in compressed for 9 5/8 in of travel, and both the upper and lower mount are an eye ring with bushing and steel sleeve, which is what gives the bushing something solid to clamp against instead of crushing under torque.

At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a suspension job is only right when the part is right. Volvo uses several drive axle shocks of differing length across model years, so confirm against the original part number before you order, and replace per axle in pairs so both sides control the suspension evenly and protect the tires. This Sachs damper is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Volvo 21462380, Monroe 65486, Gabriel 85088 and Sachs 315421.

Key features
  • Volvo Factory Damper Supplier: Sachs supplies Volvo at the factory, so the damping curve matches what the drive tandem was designed around.
  • Twin-Tube Oil, Not Gas: Matches the original ride rate instead of the harsher response of a gas-charged substitute.
  • Long 9 5/8 in Travel: 25 3/8 in extended down to 15 3/4 in compressed gives the drive axle room to work on rough road.
  • Sleeved Eye Mounts: Bushings with steel sleeves at both ends give the fastener something solid to clamp so the bushing does not crush.
  • Protects Drive Tires: Proper damping stops the axle hop that cups drive rubber and shortens tire life.
