Powerdown Shock Absorber for FreightlinerPowerdown Supershock shock absorbers are Australian-designed and tested for the specific demands of heavy commercial vehicles operating on Australian roads. Over 40 years of engineering experience in Newcastle, NSW has produced a shock absorber platform that outperforms international alternatives in Australian heat, load and road conditions.Powerdown runs one of the largest shock absorber dynamometer testing facilities in Australia, validating every product against Australian operating conditions before release. This is the difference between a shock designed for German Autobahns and one designed for a fully loaded B-double on the Nullarbor. Australian-designed for Australian road conditions, loads and operating temperatures Large bore design (41mm, 45mm and 52mm) for superior heat dissipation under sustained heavy loads Upgraded damping forces calibrated for Australian road conditions and high-horsepower engines Viton seals and high-temperature semi-synthetic fluid for extended service life 360-degree arc-welded end mounts and one-piece eye rings for heavy-haul durability Hydraulic stop / recoil cut-off reduces piston impact and suspension fatigue DU bush in rod guide minimises friction and wear under side loading Signs your shocks need replacing: Oil on the shock body, excessive body bounce or wallow, nose dive under braking, increased tyre wear, steering instability at highway speed, or driver fatigue from increased road feedback.
