Since 2006, we have accumulated extensive knowledge in supplying, fitting, and experiencing a wide range of shock absorbers, none of which have fully met our requirements for improved ride quality. The ride comfort of your classic Volkswagen is crucial for your driving enjoyment. Therefore, we have partnered with Spax, a UK manufacturer of shock absorbers, to create a hand built bespoke damper called the ‘Spax AVW’, tailored to meet our high expectations, ensuring the perfect ride for your classic Volkswagen.
The AVW shock absorber has been developed to achieve the ideal balance between a soft ride, comparable to OEM specifications, and a firm ride suitable for those seeking to reduce damper travel to accommodate significant ride height lowering, whilst maintaining a level comfort.
By utilising the rotating valve located at the bottom of the shock absorbers, these offer 28-stage bump and rebound adjustments in unison. This allows for 28 precise clicks, enabling you to fine-tune the suspension to meet your specific requirements.
The shock absorbers are available in a variety of lengths to accommodate different preferences. Whether you desire an extensively lowered appearance or prefer to maintain the OEM ride height, we offer multiple options to suit your needs.
All dampers are powder-coated to ensure excellent cosmetic appearance and superior corrosion resistance. While Spax shock absorbers are typically identifiable by their yellow colour, our unique ‘AVW’ dampers are distinguished by their gunmetal grey finish.
All dampers are made to order and are installed in-house at our workshop in Derbyshire. For further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
