Terrain Tamer’s new fortified shock absorbers

  • Designed for: LandCruiser 76/78/79 and Patrol GU/GQ
Terrain Tameru2019s new range of monotube fortified shock absorbers is said to be the brandu2019s heaviest duty shock absorber design ever!

This formula provides better responsiveness and improved heat dissipation.

To assist with ride control when towing or carrying heavy loads, the shocks also feature a 2.5-inch bore diameter for larger oil volume; a 22mm chrome-hardened shaft; and an induction-hardened chrome piston rod.

The new shocks are initially available for a range of 76, 78 and 79 Series LandCruisers, and Nissan Patrol GU/GQ vehicles. They’re ISO 9001:2008-certified and come with a three-year/100,000km non-commercial warranty.
