  • Twin-tube gas-charged design restores factory ride quality
  • Kit includes two nitrogen-charged shocks for complete rear-axle replacement
  • Over 50 years of aftermarket manufacturing ensures reliable fitment

Product Scope

The Unity 2-257040-001 kit supplies two nitrogen gas charged rear shock absorbers designed as direct replacements for the original equipment on 2004-2008 Audi A4 Sedan (B7) and 2006-2008 Audi A4 Quattro models. It is intended for owners or mechanics restoring ride quality on these specific platforms.

Standard Limits

Twin tube gas charged construction follows the original equipment design, so the kit matches factory damping characteristics without offering adjustable valving or external reservoirs. The units are sold as a pair for one axle only; front suspension components are not included and must be sourced separately if required.

Installation Notes

Unity states the parts are made for trouble-free installation as direct-fit replacements, using the existing mounting points on the listed Audi models. Corroded or seized upper mount hardware on older vehicles can complicate removal, and a wheel alignment is normally required after fitting new rear shocks.
