SHOCK ABSORBERS SUZUKI GRAND VITARA
Kit consisting of 2 Suzuki reinforced front Vitara shock absorbers, completely MADE IN ITALY, they are installed without any modification on all Grand Vitara 1999-2005 of any engine, they are extended by +4cm compared to the originals.
They are built with internally lapped mechanical steel tube, fully galvanized to prevent corrosion.
With the installation of these shocks the hubs will tilt 1.75° in order to make a camber correction for a rise of 5cm without installing the camber correction bolts.
They are calibrated in compression like the originals to promote comfort, but more braked in extension to reduce the hopping of the vehicle, both the stem and the fastening of the brake pipe are milled respecting the measures dictated by the parent company to allow quick and seamless installation. any changes.
This calibration is designed to best adapt to the european off-road vehicle and is compatible with any type of set-up, however, a custom calibration can be chosen at no extra cost when ordering.
They can be recalibrated and overhauled in all their parts, and in the first year after purchase the recalibration, upon your request, is carried out free of charge in order to adapt the shock absorber to the use you make of the vehicle.
Inside the shock absorber there is a first internal limit switch in extension resistant up to 5000kg and a second polyurethane limit switch that slows down the last 10mm of travel to avoid excessive stress on the frame supports in the event of suspension travel.
ROTHEN oil with a high viscosity index is used which guarantees the maintenance of the calibration up to 200° C, therefore these Suzuki Vitara shock absorbers are also suitable for heavy use and raids in the desert.
The new version 2022 has the following features:
- double tube in mechanical steel internally lapped, painted with epoxy powders and phosphated to prevent corrosion. The outer tube has a diameter of 60mm and a thickness of 2mm to withstand shocks.In case the body should dent, the shock will keep on work normally;
- steel rod diam.20mm coated in hard chrome CrVI free with tolerance according to EN ISO 286-2
- internal sintered components for maximum control over calibration, free of wear;
- graphited Teflon sealing band to improve the sliding of the suspension, compared to the cast iron bands, they are much quieter.
- double polyurethane bump stop to stop the stroke in extension in a controlled way and to avoid to burden the attack points to the frame and bridges;
- ROTHEN shock absorber oil specifically designed for off-road use, with a high viscosity index which guarantees a regular calibration up to 200° C, indispensable for intense use such as races or raids in the desert;
- double adjustment of calibration in extension and compression settings, both at high and low speeds, with translation reed valves, preloaded with star springs in compression and helical spring in extension;
- calibration on 10 speed test bench, from 5 to 500 m/s, to earn the perfect calibration in all conditions.
Our shock absorbers can be eternally readjusted and rebuilt at a cost of Euro 40,00 per shock.
AIR DRIED pressurization is an innovative two-phase pressurization technique that allows you to pressurize with inert gas after creating a high vacuum by completely extracting air and humidity inside the shock absorber in order to minimize oil emulsion phenomena. and creating the rust that moisture inside an unpressurized shock inevitably creates.
In addition to making the shock absorber more performing, the air dried pressurization considerably extends the life of the shock absorber and the constancy of the calibration.
