Tough Dog rear shock absorbers for the coil-sprung Nissan Pathfinder WNYD21/WHYD21 (12/1986 - 1995), sold per pair, suiting standard height up to 30mm of lift.
Nitrogen Gas (BD1382T), Foam Cell (FC41382B), or the 9-position 40mm Adjustable (BM401382).
If your Nissan Pathfinder 1986-1995 wanders over corrugations or keeps bouncing after a dip, the rear dampers are usually the culprit – heat kills damping oil long before the shocks start leaking.
The Foam Cell is Tough Dog's twin-tube workhorse: a microcellular foam insert takes the place of the usual air gap inside the shock body, so the oil can't foam up as heat builds and the damping stays consistent on long corrugated stretches. The 40mm Adjustable adds 9-stage adjustable valving – run it softer for unloaded around-town driving, then firm it up when the vehicle is loaded for touring, without taking anything apart. The Nitrogen Gas option is the comfort-oriented choice – a gas-charged twin-tube with softer valving for mostly-road driving.
Shocks are sold and fitted as a pair – replacing one side only gives you uneven damping across the axle. While the old ones are off, check the bushes and mounts; hardware that's had years of flex is cheap to do at the same time.
Doing the whole vehicle at once? We also stock the matching steering Damper and torsion Bars for the Nissan Pathfinder 1986-1995.

Genuine Tough Dog suspension from an authorised Australian dealer.
These suit the following applications: Nissan Pathfinder WNYD21, WHYD21 12/1986 - 1995. Check your build date and variant against the fitment table on this page – if you're not certain, contact us with your rego or VIN details and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
Foam Cell is the all-round choice for touring – the foam insert stops the oil aerating so damping stays consistent on corrugations. Step up to the 9-stage Adjustable if the vehicle swings between unloaded weekdays and loaded trips and you want to tune the damping to match, or to the bigger-bore options if it works hard, hot and heavy most of the time.
The listed price covers both sides – always replace left and right together so the axle is evenly damped and sprung. It's a bolt-in job for a competent home mechanic or any workshop; check bushes, mounts and brake-line slack while everything is apart.
