A shock absorber assembly consists of shock absorber, lower spring pad, dust cover, spring, shock absorber pad, upper spring pad, spring seat, bearing, rubber bushing, and nut.
The total composition of the shock absorber is divided into four parts: front left, front right, rear left, and rear right. The positions of the lugs (horns connected to the brake disc) at the bottom of each part of the shock absorber are different, so when choosing a shock absorber When assembling, be sure to identify which part of the shock absorber assembly it is.
The differences between shock absorber assembly and shock absorber:
1. Different functions
An independent shock absorber only serves shock absorption purpose, whereas a shock absorber assembly additionally acts as a suspension pillar in the suspension system.
2. Different compositions
A shock absorber is only a part of a shock absorber. A shock absorber assembly consists of shock absorber, lower spring pad, dust cover, spring, shock absorber pad, upper spring pad, spring seat, bearing, rubber bushing, and nut.
3. Different levels of difficulty in replacement
An independent shock absorber is more difficult to replace, and such replacement should be performed by a technician using special equipment, as it may lead to high safety risk. By contrast, a shock absorber assembly can be replaced easily by operating a few screws.
4. Different prices
Replacing each component of a shock absorber assembly separately will result in a high cost. By contrast, replacing a shock absorber assembly with all components as a whole is cheaper.
Advantages of vika shock absorber dust cover and auxiliary spring:
1. High-quality material: high temperature resistance, dust resistance and wear resistance, long service life.
2. High-strength compression resistance: strong compression resistance, auxiliary shock absorber to ease bumps, and increase the stability of the vehicle’s shock absorber.
3. Lighter: Polyurethane material is used.
