Frequently asked questions

What does this shock absorber do?
This Super Gaz shock absorber is a gas-pressurised rear damper that controls spring oscillation between the chassis and the live rear axle, stabilising body movement over uneven ground.
What ride height is this shock absorber built for?
It's built for standard ride height, with a closed length of 375mm and an extended length of 590mm. It works with both standard coil springs and progressive-rate spring upgrades.
Why would this shock absorber need replacing?
Rear dampers typically wear out from lost gas pressure or leaking seals, showing up as excessive body bounce, uneven tyre wear or a spongy feel over rough ground. Replacing in pairs keeps damping matched side to side.
How many are needed for a full rear replacement?
A complete rear axle needs two shock absorbers, one per side, to keep damping balanced. This unit is supplied singly.
