    Shock absorber


    Shock absorber assembly group
    Types Available
    • Twin-Tube: Balanced comfort and durability for everyday driving.
    • Monotube: Superior heat dissipation and consistent damping under load.
    • Gas-Charged: Nitrogen pressurisation to prevent foaming and improve responsiveness.
    • Struts: Integrated suspension component combining spring and damping—common in MacPherson setups.
    Why Choose These Shock Absorbers
    • Improved ride quality by controlling rebound and compression.
    • Enhanced stability during cornering, braking, and acceleration.
    • Reduced body roll and nosedive for safer handling.
    • Durable construction to resist wear, leaks and environmental exposure.
    • Fitment options for front and rear, matched per axle for symmetry.
    Fitment & Installation Notes
    • Always replace shock absorbers in pairs on the same axle to preserve balanced handling.
    • Ensure correct selection: verify vehicle make, model, axle position and whether it’s a strut or separate shock.
    • Use proper lifting and support; follow manufacturer torque specifications during installation.
    • Struts often involve springs—use a spring compressor for safe removal/replacement.
    • After installation, a wheel alignment is strongly recommended to restore correct suspension geometry.
    Inspection & When to Replace

    Inspect shock absorbers during routine service or if ride quality degrades. Key indicators:

    • Leaking hydraulic fluid/oil around the shock body.
    • Excessive bouncing after bumps (poor damping).
    • Uneven tyre wear due to inconsistent contact patch.
    • Knocking, rattling or unusual noises from mounts or internals.
    • Vehicle instability: increased body roll, nose dive, or rear squat.

    Typical replacement interval: Varies with usage; many systems benefit from inspection around 80,000–120,000 km and earlier under harsh conditions.

    Symptoms of Failure
    • Soft or bouncy ride feel.
    • Reduced control during cornering or braking.
    • Vehicle sways or lurches over road imperfections.
    • Longer stopping distances due to tire contact loss.
    • Visible sagging or uneven ride height.
    Best Practices
    • Always use matched pairs; never mix old and new shocks on the same axle.
    • Check and replace related components (mounts, bushings, bearings) when servicing shocks.
    • Use quality parts that conform to or exceed OEM specifications.
    • Break in new shock absorbers with moderate driving, then recheck fastener torque and alignment.
    ⚠️ Important:
    Driving with worn or mismatched shock absorbers impairs vehicle control and safety. Improper installation or ignoring signs of degradation can lead to instability, increased tyre wear and compromised braking. Always follow correct procedures and replace in pairs.
