You need shocks specifically designed for a 1989 Cadillac Fleetwood. Using incorrect shocks can lead to:
* Improper suspension geometry: Leading to poor handling, uneven tire wear, and potential damage to other suspension components.
* Poor ride quality: A bouncy, harsh ride, or a dangerously unstable vehicle.
* Safety issues: Compromised braking and handling, increasing the risk of accidents.
Always use shocks that are specifically listed as compatible with your 1989 Cadillac Fleetwood. You can find the correct ones at auto parts stores, online retailers, or through a Cadillac specialist. The vehicle's owner's manual or a parts catalog may also list the correct shock absorber part numbers.
