It supports the vehicle weight, enables a steering of the spring strut and prevents the penetration of vibrations and noises into the chassis.

By callibrating the characteristic curve the performacne and comfort can be strongly infuenced.

The shock absorber mounting is exposed to strong demands and influences of the weather and therefore it is among the wear and tear parts.

The consequences of a defect are perceptible:

• Loss of exact wheel control
• Loss of optomal roadcontact of the tires
• Unprecise steering behaviour
• Prolongation of braking distance
• Increased noise
• Decreased Absporption of vibrations

For this reason we recommend to replace the shock absorber mounting in case of shock absorber exchange.
