Frequently asked questions

What is the front +2 inch 4-stage shock absorber and what does it do?
It's the front suspension damper that controls spring oscillation between the chassis and front axle, with an extended body sized for a +2 inch raised ride height. A four-position adjuster sets the damping rate so you can tune front ride firmness for road or off-road use. Made by Terrafirma.
What does the +2 inch rating mean for fitment?
The +2 inch refers to an extended damper body matched to suspension lifted around 2 inches over standard. It's intended for a vehicle already running a 2-inch lift, so fitting it at standard ride height usually isn't recommended as the travel won't be matched.
How many of these front shocks do I need?
You'll typically need two, one for each side of the front axle. Front shocks are usually replaced as a pair so both sides damp evenly, even if only one has worn or begun to leak.
Which Land Rovers does this front shock fit?
It fits the Land Rover Defender (up to 2016), Discovery 1 (1989-1998) and Range Rover Classic (up to 1994), in the front +2 inch raised position. Check your VIN and confirm your vehicle runs a 2-inch lift before ordering.
What are the signs a front shock absorber needs replacing?
Typically a worn front shock shows as nose-dive under braking, vague or floaty steering, oil leaking down the body, or knocking over bumps. On lifted Land Rovers, poor control on rough ground usually points to tired front dampers.
