Monotube Shock Absorber - Front - +2" Travel is a high-pressure gas damper for the front axle damping assembly, built 2" (50 mm) longer than standard so that suspension raised on lifted springs retains full droop instead of being limited by the damper at full extension.

A floating piston separates the high-pressure nitrogen charge from the suspension fluid, which eliminates aeration and the damping fade that follows sustained heavy use. The 46 mm sintered, Teflon-coated piston works inside a 52 mm thick-wall monotube body, giving a large area under pressure for precise damping control, while the 16 mm induction-hardened hard chrome shaft runs in high-performance oil and dust seals behind an HDPE dust shield. OE-style bushes and mountings are used throughout, so fitting and later servicing follow standard practice.

Specification: +2" travel, 645 mm open length, 400 mm closed length, 16 mm shaft diameter, 46 mm piston diameter, 52 mm body diameter.

Serviceable parts: replacement bush kits ROA100050 (front upper) and ROA100040 (front lower).

Frequently asked questions

What is the +2 inch travel front monotube shock for?
This front monotube shock absorber is built 2 inches (50mm) longer than standard so suspension raised on lifted springs runs the damper in its correct range. It is a high-pressure gas damper for the front axle of a Land Rover Discovery 2. Terrafirma.
Do I need +2 inch shocks if I have lifted springs?
Yes, if the Discovery 2 runs +2 inch lifted springs, this longer front shock keeps the damper working in its proper travel range. Fitting standard length shocks on a lifted vehicle can over-extend them and lose damping control.
Is this front shock sold singly or as a pair?
This is a single front shock absorber for the Discovery 2. Shocks are normally replaced in pairs, so a front job usually needs two. A matching +2 inch rear shock is a separate part.
