By reducing unwanted vehicle body roll, pitch and nose diving, New SR Special shock absorbers are designed to achieve superior damping forces compared to original equipment.

When installed, a vehicle will demonstrate better handling response, greater stability, and shorter braking distances. Additionally, New SR Special technology self-adjusts to prevent damping forces from becoming excessive, ensuring pleasurable, fatigue-free, long-distance driving.

Outstanding features include:

* Extended and compressed lengths match Original Equipment.

* Increased damping forces in certain driving modes ¨C the car is more stable at high speeds and with aggressive driving style.

* Preservation of the standard level of comfort during calm driving, despite a significant increase in operational energy intensity and control.

* Absorbs the impact of bumps and seams above the moderate speeds by adjusting the full volume of the damping force.

* Compression and rebound damping forces can be increased by 15-20% during some modes of operation.

The upper strut mount supports are one of the key elements within the suspension assembly, as they provide a link between the shock absorber and the body of the car. Made of quality materials on modern equipment, the KYB upper strut mount supports improve handling and comfort when driving on any road.

The Role Of Suspension Mounting Kits

1. Improves the link between the shock absorber and the chassis.
2. Increases the life of the shock absorber and all suspension components.
3. Improves handling and control.

To ensure the vehicle performs safely and as designed, we recommend replacing struts and shock absorbers as parallel pairs (Left & Right).

When the damping rates are significantly different from side to side the vehicle body and wheel movement variations cancause handling abnormalities.

For this reason, replacing both left and right struts and shock absorbers for either the front or rear suspension position, will maintain optimal dampening control symmetry, resulting in an even and balanced drive.

Yes, it is a good idea to inspect and replace worn strut mounts, bump stops and protection boots when replacing struts.

Replacing struts in a vehicle can be very time intensive as it requires the entire strut to be removed and disassembled. The strut mount optimises suspension performance by providing a smooth steering response and reducing vibration. Bump stops safeguard the strut from bottom-out damage, and protection boots provide protection to the struts piston rod from road debris (e.g. dirt, dust, salt and stones).
