Direct OE Replacement
This Unity rear shock absorber carries part number 251010 and is built as a direct replacement for the original equipment on 2004-2007 Chevrolet Malibu models.

Unity Automotive draws on over 50 years of aftermarket manufacturing experience to produce suspension components engineered for trouble-free installation and long-lasting reliability.
Fitment Verification Required
Confirm the vehicle is a Chevrolet Malibu produced between 2004 and 2007 before ordering. This unit is application-specific and will not fit other model years, trim levels or vehicle platforms. Check the existing rear shocks for signs of leakage, physical damage or excessive bounce to validate the need for replacement on this axle position.
Twin-Tube Gas-Charged Design
The gas-charged twin-tube construction reduces aeration and fade during extended use, delivering consistent damping performance across varying road conditions. This internal architecture supports a controlled ride without the complexity of external reservoirs or adjustable valves. The result is a maintenance-free unit that installs using standard tools and existing mounting points.
