So opening the super strut shock to find out Toyota decided to use a hydraulic cartridge instead of the gas cartridge found in the McPherson set up.
I saw one video from YouTube and I only understood that hydraulic allows for a smoother and less harsh ride when strut rebounds. Is this true. Anybody else have any thoughts? -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

A Gas shock is basically a gas filled hydraulic shock isnt it?
The gas is placed in a hydraulic shock to prevent aeration. I like strut discussions!!  --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
