By replacing both front dampers together, the set restores balanced suspension behaviour, consistent handling, and a smoother, more controlled ride. This is essential on vehicles where matched damping forces across the front axle are needed for proper steering response and stability.

This shock absorber smooths out bumps, potholes, and road imperfections to provide a more controlled and comfortable ride. It helps keep the front suspension stable during braking, cornering, and acceleration, supporting predictable steering and confident road-holding. By reducing unwanted oscillation, rebound, and vibration, it prevents instability and restores proper suspension performance when the original damper has become worn or ineffective.

Over time, shock absorbers lose their effectiveness through internal wear, fluid leaks, or weakened valving, which leads to a harsher ride and reduced suspension control. A worn damper allows excessive movement, causing instability, longer braking distances, and uneven tyre wear. Replacing it with a fresh OE-match unit restores proper damping, improves handling confidence, and helps maintain overall driving safety and comfort.

You should fit a new shock absorber if:
•  The ride has become bouncy, unsettled or harsh over uneven surfaces
•  Handling feels loose or unstable, especially at speed or under load
•  The vehicle exhibits uneven tyre wear, or suspension components show stress
•  Shock absorber shows leaks, damage or reduced damping performance
•  You are refreshing or upgrading the suspension for improved comfort or safety
