Product Structure

• The shock absorber assembly is composed of shock absorber, lower spring washer, dust cover, spring, shock absorber, upper spring washer, spring seat, bearing, top rubber, and nut.
• The total components of the shock absorber are four parts: front left, front right, rear left, and rear right. 
• The position of the lug (the horn connected to the brake disc) at the bottom of the shock absorber is different in each part, so when choosing a shock absorber assembly, be sure to find out which part of the shock absorber assembly is.

When should the car shock absorber assembly be replaced?

• Bouncing test: Press the car at the front or back corner of the car and release it quickly. If the car bounces over, the shock absorber is damaged and should be replaced.
• The number of kilometers tested: the shock absorber should be checked regularly for 20,000 kilometers, it is recommended to replace the shock absorber for 80,000 kilometers, and the shock absorber must be replaced for 100,000 kilometers.
• Tire friction: A damaged shock absorber will cause abnormal grooves on the tire surface and uneven wear. The shock absorber should be replaced.
• Leakage of shock absorber: If the shock absorber leaks oil, the shock absorber should be replaced in time.

Professional installation is more Recommended.

We recommend taking your car in for a quick wheel alignment after you install new struts to make sure your camber angle is right on the money.
