Gaz suspension units are provided with an on car multi point adjustment facility that alters bump and rebound settings on a pre set ratio ie 3-1, 2-1 by a single control knob on the side of the unit. The struts and inserts in the road range are fitted with a top adjuster that alters rebound settings only but the bump setting can be altered for various motor sport use ie drag racing, track day or race use at the point of order.
All units are fitted with multiple seal systems to ensure greater durability. The piston roads are induction hardened and hard chrome plated to resist dirt and stone damage. All the bodies are zinc plated to help protect the units from corrosion.
Gaz units are all fully serviceable to ensure a longer service life and can be re-valved offering customers various ride control characteristics for development programmes in the road, kit car market and motor sport industry.
All road units carry a full two year warranty.
Gaz height adjustable kits are primarily made for the modified road car market. The main features of these kits are:
1. On car damping adjustment
2. Shortened body and stroke lengths to allow a -25 to -65mm ride height adjustment
3. The units have a coarse acme form thread for ease of adjustment and to minimise corrosion the unit is zinc plated
4. All units are provided with high quality coil springs in various rates and diameters. Spring rates can be altered on request to suit customers requirements
5. When a coilover is unable to be installed a separate damper and rear coil spring with a variable spring platform is used so the kit retains full height adjustment.
N>B These kits can obtain much lower ride heights for show purposes only but the vehicle should not be driven at these levels as the steering and drive shaft joints can lock out.
These kits are hand built to order in the UK so please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery.
