Developed specifically for production-based race cars with strut suspensions, the 2817 Series shares its internal components with the very successful 2812 racing damper.

The 2817 is the cost-effective strut solution for the professional or club racer.  It is a semi-finished aluminium McPherson strut without brackets, containing a 2816 type insert.  It also offers stroke ranges from 119 to 199 mm.  Steel brackets can be welded onto the housing by the customer.

The 2816 and 2817 are modular systems, meaning all 2816 and 2817 shock cartridges share the same basic dimensions and features.  The stroke lengths and valving characteristics will be custom-built to suit the specific application.
