Mono Tube Shocks
Monotube shock absorbers are high pressure-driven gas shocks that contain one tube only. As with the Twin Tube design it also uses a working piston and rod; however, monotube shock absorbers have greater mounting flexibility and operate either right side up or upside down, enabling them to sustain greater weight.
Twin Tube Shocks
In twin tube shock absorber operation, nitrogen gas, at a reduced pressure level, is added to the engine cylinder to replace oxygen. This addition of nitrogen reduces engine performance fade.
Struts and Strut Cartridges
The cylindrical cartridge located inside the spring of the steering arm acts as a dampener so that the spring cannot instantly throw the vehicles chassis back up after hitting a bump. The strut slows the rebound, thereby making the ride more comfortable.
