{"product_id":"ims-2-2-monotube-strut-1","title":"IMS 2.2\" Monotube Strut","description":"The Dobinsons IMS 2.2″ Monotube Struts are engineered for serious off-roaders and overlanders seeking maximum performance and durability. Featuring a 2.2″ (56mm) heavy-duty shock body and an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) monotube design, these shocks are built to handle extreme conditions while maintaining consistent damping and comfort.\n\nKey features include a 2.2″ (56mm) shock body for increased oil volume and cooling efficiency, and a monotube IFP design that separates oil and gas for consistent damping. They incorporate a high-flow CNC-machined race piston (50mm or 60mm) for superior performance, and a carbon-fiber\/PTFE composite wear band to reduce friction and extend life. The struts are constructed with 3mm thick DOM body tubing, honed to tight tolerances for strength, and feature an adjustable spring seat made from T6 6061 aluminum. The engineered damping is tuned for comfort, control, and off-road capability.\n\nIt is recommended to purchase replacement strut mounts to complete the assembly. Additionally, Front Upper Control Arms are recommended to improve clearance around the strut mount on the frame and avoid Coil Bucket Contact (CBC). Certain modifications, like clearance work on the FUCA mount and potentially grinding the coil bucket lip, may be necessary depending on the vehicle and lift height.\n\nA note regarding spring installation: when using +220 springs, the thicker Navara washer, included with IMS or Twin Tubes, must be installed on top of the piston cup to prevent coil bind. Exceeding the maximum adjustable length measurement must be avoided, as it can cause serious damage to the shock absorber, spring, and vehicle. A minimum of 50mm of downward wheel travel must always be maintained.","brand":"Dobinsons","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52872229945656,"sku":"IMS45-50648","price":326.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/ims-2-2-monotube-strut-1","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
