VW Kombi Front Shock Absorber 1971-1979

Front shock absorber for VW Kombi 1971-1979

Although you can drive a car on worn shocks, it is not something you should scrimp on, as they are integral to everything the car does, especially braking and turning. On badly worn shocks, braking distances can increase; a car could ‘skip’ across the road mid-corner over bumps; or it may react in an unexpected manner during an emergency manoeuvre, so at the first sign of an issue, get them replaced.

These shock absorbers are supplied in singles but we recommended replacing in pairs; having two effectively different dampers on the same axle will do nothing to improve stability or safety.
