Skunk2 Sport Shocks – ’89–’91 Honda Civic / CRX

The Skunk2 Sport Shocks for the 1989–1991 Honda Civic and CRX are premium, high-performance factory-replacement dampers designed for enthusiasts seeking improved handling, ride comfort, and reliability at a fixed ride height. Developed using many of the same technologies found in Skunk2’s Pro-ST and Pro-S II Coilover systems, these shocks provide exceptional performance and durability while maintaining daily drivability.

Each Sport Shock features a shortened dual-tube body with a hardened, super-finished chrome-plated shaft and precision valving optimized for use with Skunk2 Lowering Springs or Adjustable Sleeve Coilovers. The reduced shaft stroke ensures full suspension travel even on lowered vehicles, while polyurethane top hat bushings enhance feedback and steering response.

Engineered and tested by Skunk2’s suspension development team, these shocks deliver predictable performance, improved control, and long-lasting reliability — making them a perfect upgrade for spirited street driving or track use.
