we are proud to annouce that we now carry the ori nitrogen gas strut . this is a coil less strut. with side hill sensing valve .
when the truck goes into a side hill position the valve will double the spring rate on the downhill shocks .
these shocks are available in 8-20" travel and can be ordered up to 40" of travel
these may be the future of rockcrawling
Stabilizer bars add weight and increase resistance to upward wheel movement, causing a harsh and uncomfortable ride, and inhibit wheel contact with the ground on uneven terrain. Each ORI Strut is an independent stabilizer working in harmony with the other wheel struts. With the independent stabilizer action of the ORI Strut true four-wheel independent suspension is realized – faster, more controlled speed over rough terrain is now possible. A high flow main piston provides the quickest compression stroke wheel response available; and complimented with a 7-position externally adjustable rebound dampening, you can easily tune the ORI Strut to your driving style.
For those of you who only know two speeds – full throttle or broken, you are no strangers to hot shocks. For you, the ORI Strut has a built-in cooling pump that circulates dampening oil through the heat-generating rod bearing, into an outer concentric cooling chamber, and back into the main cylinder.
The bump stop, limit strap and shock are all integral components of the ORI Strut’s hydraulics
Rock Crawling provides one of the slowest moving adrenaline rushes money can buy, yet the needs are very unique. ORI Struts are the perfect compliment to a rock crawler, adding instant chassis stability for the unexpected bumps and twists, while at the same time delivering total control over axle articulation. With external piping and controls, each strut can be either pressurized to full extension or collapsed with vacuum – eliminating suspension unloading – all at your command.
ORI’s patented pneumatic logic is governed by a gravity-sensitive weighted cam, which triggers a pilot shuttle valve within the upper cap of the strut. The cam reports changes in vehicle inclination to the pilot valve, which in turn, provides a small air volume input signal to a high-flow spool valve. The high-flow spool either blocks or opens airflow between the main and outer cylinders. When the vehicle leans on a hill or fast turn, a hard spring rate is achieved by confining compression stroke gases within the main cylinder. When the vehicle returns to a level position, the pneumatic logic opens the high-flow spool valves of all four struts to combine the compressible volumes of the main and outer cylinders, resulting in a soft spring rate. Each strut is calibrated at installation for mounting angle and its right or left side relative position.
