Shock Absorbers

How a shock absorber works

The spring-loaded valve only opens to allow the oil to pass through when enough force is supplied. This force is generated by the speed at which the shock is extending and contracting. As the stroking speed of the shock increases, more stages of the valving come into play to control the flow of the oil.

For those owners of Four-Wheel Drive vehicles, there is simply no better than TrakRyder. Two shock absorbers are available within the TrakRyder Range, Pedders 4WD Gas SportsRyder and Pedders 4WD Foam Cell. With TrakRyder shock absorbers and especially when incorporated with the other components of the TrakRyder range, 4WD owners can enjoy the best of both worlds.

The benefits of owning a 4WD plus comfort and handling more like a family SUV. Pedders’ TrakRyder steering dampers enhance driving feel and comfort by further reducing the jolts and impacts that feedback through the steering wheel caused by heavy off-road wheels and rough conditions. TrakRyder steering dampers feature an extra-large 35mm bore. This provides optimum performance via the Foam Cell technology that enables the steering damper to operate at any angle.

TrakRyder steering dampers are available to replace original equipment on most 4WD models.

The Pedders EziFit range is supplied as a matched set of pre-assembled suspension components including a designated Pedders Shock Absorber, Pedders Heavy Duty Spring and Pedders Strut Mount.

Installation time is reduced as the components are supplied pre-assembled and ready for a direct bolt-on fitment saving time and money and eliminating the need for spring compressors and other specialized equipment.

With the internally designed “Bridged Ferrel” mounting bush, Pedders have created a mount that will endure the rigorous operational conditions placed on the mounting bush. A larger bonded surface area, used in conjunction with high quality rubber with the appropriate duro. The added advantage is the resistance of the bush “walking sideways” on the ferrule.

The casing has been designed to allow for increased pretension to occur when it is pressed into the shock absorber mount.
