If your original Shock / Strut is surrounded by a Coil Spring, replacing just the bare cartridge may require a Coil Spring Compressor to safely remove and reuse the spring and mount (not included) from your original assembly.
OESpectrum® struts feature the latest original equipment valving technologies specific to each application to provide an unprecedented level of handling precision and control while filtering out noise, vibration and harshness.
Features
All Weather Fluid: Contains special modifiers to reduce friction and ensure smooth rod reaction.
Rod Displaced Valving: Tuned specifically for each application, this valving automatically adjusts to road extremes to provide consistency and ride comfort.
Fluon Banded Piston: The fluon band provides consistent sealing between the piston and pressure tube which delivers better control and increased durability.
Twin Technology: Impact Control Valve (ICV), delivers exceptional control under virtually all driving conditions, and patented Low Speed Tunability (LST) piston design that isolates impact-related noise, vibration and harshness.
Hardened and Chrome Plated Piston Rod: Long service life.
