Construction & Design
The shock absorbers are built with a monotube design that ensures superior heat dissipation and consistent damping. The piston and cylinder are machined from high-quality materials to withstand harsh road conditions, while the corrosion-resistant coating extends the lifespan of the components. This construction supports reliable performance and maintains optimal ride quality over the vehicle’s lifespan.
Driving Feel & Feedback
