Two different technologies
There are several different types of shock absorbers in the motor industry. The two most frequently used are hydraulic oil dampers and gas dampers.
Euro4x4parts offers both at very attractive prices.
Hydraulic shock absorbers
Hydraulic shock absorbers work by means of a piston that compresses the oil in the shock absorber tube. This compression is more or less rapid, depending on the force of impact .
