Product Description

The KONI 8050 1080 STR.T Rear Shock is a vehicle-specific gas-charged shock absorber engineered to replace worn rear dampers on select Volvo 850, S70, V70, and C70 models produced between 1993 and 2005. Part of KONI's STR.T "Street" series, this rear shock delivers a balanced combination of improved handling and everyday ride comfort compared to typical OEM units. Its non-adjustable damping system provides consistent performance without the need for aftermarket tuning or setup adjustments.

Constructed with a durable twin-tube design and low-pressure gas charge, the 8050 1080 offers reliable damping forces that reduce body roll and provide better control under various driving conditions. The bright orange finish enhances corrosion resistance and makes the STR.T series easy to identify during maintenance. Sold individually, it's recommended to install shocks in matched pairs on the rear axle for balanced suspension performance. This shock is ideal for drivers refreshing aged suspension or upgrading to a more responsive rear riding feel without sacrificing comfort.
