A vehicle shock absorber includes a piston rod. A cylinder head having a bore defining an axis supports the rod within the bore. A wiper, which preferably a hard plastic, is disposed within the cylinder head. The wiper has in inner surface that is in an interference fit with the rod. The wiper has spaced apart upper and lower contacts that are press fit to the rod. The inner surface tapers away from the upper and lower contacts to a generally central portion forming a cavity. The inner surface is spaced from the rod in the area of the cavity. In this manner, the interference between the wiper and rod is minimized forming only line contacts about the rod. The outer circumference of the wiper is preferably spaced from an annular pocket in the cylinder head receiving the wiper to permit the wiper to move laterally as its scraps debris from the rod. The cylinder head components are installed from the inner side of the cylinder head and a plate is press fit into the end of the cylinder head.
