Shock absorbers Dobinsons or Sachs

Sachs Shock absorbers

Muitas casas não gostam, aparentemente, porque é chato ganhar dinheiro com o cliente que conhece o suficiente para chegar lá com pastilhas ATE, discos Zimmermann Coat Z, casquilhos e braços SKF, amortecedores e kits de embraiagem Sachs e por aí adiante

Pros: material bom
Cons: material linha branca

Dobinsons Shock absorbers

Just change shock absorbers. I would very much recommend adjustable ones eg Dobinson. Bilsteins are great but they have very specific valving which has a lot of low speed damping, eliminating body roll but resulting in a bumpy ride under 60km/hr. At high speed they’re awesome. Some of the US spec ones have softer valving (5100s)

Pros: eliminating body roll
Cons: bumpy ride under 60km/hr
Vehicle: Toyota

For me Sachs is the way to go for original quality and driving dynamics. I have Sachs on all 4 corners on both my W124s and they are great.

Pros: original quality, great driving dynamics

BUT op if I were you, I'd replace just the shocks (keep the Sachs springs) and replace with OE Sachs shocks (struts) Bilstien also makes yellows with OE ride height i believe, that would be the best street ride quality.

Pros: best street ride quality

My MRR’s have the exact same symptoms. Also around 30k miles. Dobinsons is awesome and is taking it in on warranty no questions asked really. They’re the best.

Pros: taking it in warranty
Cons: same symptoms
Mileage: 30000 km

I’ve got Dobinsons MRA’s on my patrol - highly rate them! I’ve just finished a 7 month lap including the cape and Tele track. Being able to dial them was a godsend for corrugations, definitely helped to dampen the vibrations.

Pros: dampen the vibrations
Cons: rear bracket placement
Vehicle: Nissan Patrol
Mileage: 23000 km

I've had a number of BMWs and VWs with Sachs shocks leak after 40-50k miles. It's not like they totally fail and collapse, they just start having much slower rebound and faster compression.

Cons: slower rebound, faster compression
