RAW 4X4 PRE-ASSEMBLED STRUTS

For less time in the workshop and more time off-road Raw 4x4 says the installation of front suspension is made safer and simpler for installers with its range of pre-assembled struts.

It explains that the strut top hat, polyurethane bushes and coil spring of choice come preassembled and ready to install without the need for a spring compressor in the workshop; reducing the time and risk involved in compressing the coil spring and fitting it over the strut.

Raw 4x4 states that for most vehicles seven years and older, a pre-assembled strut option is highly recommended, providing complete replacement of all components; greatly improving ride control and handling.

The company warns that wear and tear to the top rubber mounting bushes can lead to fitment and noise issues if they are re-used and not replaced. Worn struts and shocks no longer effectively absorb road impacts which not only creates an uncomfortable driving experience but can lead to unusual tyre wear (cupping) and a myriad of ride control issues.

Designed and developed in Australia, Raw Nitro,

Nitro Max and Predator struts are available as preassembled units for an extensive range of common models across Ford, Foton, Holden, Isuzu, LDV, Mazda, Mercedes Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan and Toyota.

Raw 4x4 says its engineering team is dedicated to researching and developing shock absorbers and suspension components using some of the most advanced testing facilities in Australia, including one of the largest dynamometers in the country, to accurately measure the dampening capabilities of a shock absorber.

It says extensive testing is carried out in the Raw 4x4 facility, based in Beresfield, New South Wales, to replicate some of the harshest 4WDriving conditions, which is also backed by tests performed on Australia’s diversified road and climatic conditions.

Raw 4x4 says the combination of lab and real-world testing ensures “the highest level of quality and performance is achieved for the best combination of comfort and control.”

Raw 4x4 states that it does not believe in the one size fits all approach to suspension.
