Product Overview

This heavy duty kit is engineered to support vehicles that carry heavy loads or tow trailers regularly. It replaces the weaker original self-levelling springs and shocks by supplying matched dampers and springs that carry the vehicle weight correctly and maintain the standard ride height. The kit eliminates reliance on the original self-levelling function, which can fail and cause the vehicle to sit low.

The suspension components are supplied pre-assembled for quick installation and convenience. While the stated vehicle height measurement references 16 inch wheels, the kit is compatible with a range of wheel sizes, ensuring fitment flexibility for different tyres and driving conditions.

Technology & Materials

The Pedders SportsRyder gas struts feature a heavy duty twin-tube gas construction combined with reinforced double welded mountings to provide long term durability and reliable performance under demanding conditions.

Installation & Compatibility

The kit is supplied as a matched set of pre-assembled components that bolt directly into the existing mounting points. No vehicle modifications or additional parts are required for installation. Professional wheel alignment is recommended after fitting to ensure optimal handling and tyre wear.

This kit is intended for heavy duty applications such as vehicles with LPG, carrying heavy loads or towing. For normal use, Pedders offers a softer spring variant.
