⚙️ What Does the Kit Include?
While contents may vary slightly by supplier, a typical kit includes:
- Shock absorber (damper unit)
- Mounting hardware or fittings (if specified)
- Pre-configured for left-hand or right-hand installation (depending on model)
Some variants are adjustable to fine-tune suspension stiffness.
Function Within the Seat
The shock absorber:
- Controls vertical seat movement
- Dampens oscillation from the air suspension
- Prevents excessive bouncing or “bottoming out”
- Keeps the seat stable under load
Without a functioning shock absorber, seats can become uncomfortable and unsafe.
When Should It Be Replaced?
You may need to replace the shock absorber if:
- Seat feels bouncy or unstable
- Reduced damping or excessive movement
- Visible wear, oil leakage, or damage
- Operator complaints of discomfort or fatigue
Regular maintenance ensures continued performance and compliance.
Compatibility
- ISRI 6860 series seats
- NTS / NTS2 suspension systems
- Various OEM part numbers (e.g. 947519 series references)
Always confirm left/right orientation and part number before ordering.
Why This Product Matters
A properly functioning shock absorber:
- Improves operator safety and control
- Reduces downtime and maintenance issues
- Enhances driver comfort and productivity
- Extends the lifespan of the seat system
️ Ideal For
- Fleet maintenance teams
- Workshop repairs
- Seat refurbishment projects
- Replacement of worn ISRI components
