Reviews & Ratings

Shock absorber for Balljoint front beam. The shock is supplied with the upper bushes, washer and top nut to fit. Supplied individually

It is very important to fit the correct length shocks to a lowered car. There must be at least 2 inches of up and down travel from the normal ride height. To ascertain what length you require you must measure the distance between the shock mountings on your vehicle after you have removed the existing shock. This must be done with the vehicle on its road wheels (not on a jack). Once you have measured you need to check it against the shock absorbers we list to see which ones you need.

Prior to fitting new shock absorbers always pump it through a few strokes the correct way up. This removes bubbles that may have formed in the fluid whilst in storage and improves the effectiveness.

Product Questions

How much shorter are these shocks? I'm looking to lower my 73 beetle approx 2/3 inches. Will these suffice? Thanks!
Question by: Keiran Apsit-Livens on 17 Aug 2021, 5:56 pm
These have a measurement of 355mm extended and 225mm compressed. We recommend once lowered to put the Beetle back on its road wheels, without any shocks and measure the distance between the upper and lower mounting points. If the measurements you have is approx 280mm these will be suitable.
