Enhance vehicle stability and comfort for towing and hauling applications.
The Monroe Sensa-Trac load adjusting shock absorber is engineered to improve ride quality and handling for vehicles that tow or carry heavy loads. Featuring position sensitive damping (PSD) technology, this shock absorber utilizes precision tapered grooves in the pressure tube to optimize ride tuning and enhance safety characteristics. The nitrogen gas charged design helps maintain tire contact with the road, reducing aeration and improving overall handling performance.
Constructed with a heavy gauge calibrated coil spring, the Sensa-Trac shock absorber provides maximum control without increasing ride harshness. The full displaced valving is specifically tuned for each application, automatically adjusting to road conditions to ensure a consistent and comfortable ride. Additionally, the Fluon banded piston enhances durability and control by providing a reliable seal between the piston and pressure tube.
This shock absorber is suitable for light trucks that may carry varying loads or tow trailers, with a capacity to assist in maintaining ride height when up to 1,200 pounds of additional weight is loaded. The inclusion of a special self-lubricating fluid seal ensures long-lasting performance by retaining gas without excessive wear or friction. The Monroe Sensa-Trac shock absorber is a practical choice for enhancing vehicle performance in demanding conditions.
