Frequently asked questions

What is the TF481 front shock absorber and what does it do?
The TF481 is a front shock absorber that damps the front suspension, valved specifically for a +2" raised ride height. It controls spring movement to keep the tyre planted. Its remote reservoir separates the extra gas and oil from the main body, helping it shed heat and resist fade under sustained off-road use.
Which Land Rovers does the TF481 front shock fit?
The TF481 front shock absorber fits the Defender (1987-2016), Discovery 1 (1989-1998) and Range Rover Classic. It's valved for a +2" lift, so it suits a raised vehicle rather than one at standard ride height.
How many TF481 shocks do I need?
You'll typically need two TF481 front shock absorbers, since shocks are usually replaced as a pair to keep damping balanced across the front axle. This listing covers the front damper; the rear dampers are a separate part.
When should the TF481 front shock be replaced?
A front shock like the TF481 usually needs replacing when it leaks oil, the ride turns bouncy or floaty, or the front end feels vague over bumps. Worn dampers let the front axle move uncontrolled, which hurts handling and accelerates tyre wear on Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic.
