Description

This is Standard Shock Absorber for the Front Triumph Spitfire, Triumph GT6. The shock absorbers comes complete with the upper and lower bushings, no bushings will be needed. Shock absorbers should be replaced in pairs to insure the handling of the car will not be affected.

Shocks are an important part of the Triumph Spitfire's and GT6 suspension system and help keep the tires in contact with the road to keep you car stable and predictable. They also ensure that you the drive or passenger get a smooth ride along the road. Like all other suspension pieces, they where overtime and need to be inspected and replaced time to time. Be sure to watch out for the common signs of shock absorber wear. One of the common signs that your Triumph Spitfire and GT6 may be experiencing problems is with "bottoming out” when going over bumps in the road. This will cause a sharp jarring effect for the driver and passenger and fun of a Sunday drive is greatly reduced. Another common sign of worn shocks absorbers is when the front end of the Triumph Spitfire, GT6 dives forward while the brakes are applied causing it to nose dive. This goes back to Newton's law, motions stays in motion, when the brakes are pressed, the weight of the Triumph wants to keep traveling forward and the shock absorbers is not able to dampen this force. This effect of this is hard on the performance of the front brakes and even puts additional stress on the rear brakes because the weight of the car travels up and the braking force is reduced. All of this creates a driving hazard because your Triumph will be harder to control and steer.
