  REPLACEMENT OF SHOCK ABSORBERS  
 

Là encore, plusieurs choix sont possibles parmi les différents fournisseurs spécialisés: OHLINS, MVS, DONNERRE, PROFLEX, DYNAM, FOURNALES, BOSS, RIEGER, PERFORMANCE, FOX...

Souvent, il faudra prévoir un emplacement adéquat pour la bonbonne d'azote qui devra rester accessible pour les réglages en détente et en compression (hautes et basses vitesses), et néanmoins bien refroidie.

  Ground adherence is one of major points in preparation of rallies-raids vehicles subjected to important constraints due to the land.

Shock absorbers play a crucial part, and their installation must be realised after a serious study considering first of all regulations.

If rules are rather free in T1 category, in T2 they limit doubling of origin shock absorber or give more freedom for a mono-shock absorber fitting; this last option has been chosed for our HRT T2 Pajero, offering maximum strenght and suspension travel.

In T1 category, preference is often given to doubling of shock absorbers, operation also feasible on a traditional 4X4. Contact us...

 
  Fitting of a spring-shock absorber unit in our T2 Pajero   
  Below a sight of the unit equipped with its spring (King Spring).  
  This unit is directly fixed on a tubular scaffolding welded on 4X4 longerons and linked to the safety frame (see photo below). Constraints of violent impacts are supported by the unit, which avoid premature ageing of front bodywork components which were used to be cut off.

Here (photo on the right), the unit spring-MVS shock absorber (RDConcept) is lenghtened with an aluminium extension in order to withdraw the spring from the movement of Pajero upper wishbone.

Main strenghts :
- rigidity of the unity
- simplicity of adjustment

- reduced cost
- preserved turning circle
