Product Info
With superior on-road performance, these KYB oil-only steering dampers satisfy the most demanding drivers. Fully self-adjusting, KYB’s Premium Series Steering Dampers were designed to incorporate advanced damping technologies to deliver consistent road control and comfort, with the added benefit of a prolonged service life.
A Steering Damper acts to dampen and control a vehicle when the front tyres make contact with a hole or rut on the road.
It also helps the vehicle to drive and steer in a straight line, preventing it from following channels and curves in the road surface. While a new steering damper reduces driver fatigue and makes driving safer, a faulty one can force the steering wheel from the driver’s hands when contact is made with a bump in the road. While these are not required in modern 4WD vehicles fitted with steering racks, 4WD’s with steering boxes do require a steering damper.
