Great Wall Jolion Shock Absorber
About this part: Shock Absorber
A shock absorber (damper) converts suspension movement into heat so the spring stops oscillating after one cycle. Twin-tube dampers are the common design; monotube units run higher gas pressure and shed heat better. Where the damper forms part of the suspension leg and locates the hub, it is a strut, and it will usually be supplied with a different mounting arrangement to a plain shock.
Symptoms that usually point to it on a vehicle like the Great Wall Jolion:
- The body continuing to float or bounce after a bump instead of settling in one movement.
- Pronounced nose dive under braking and body roll in corners.
- Cupped or scalloped tyre wear — the tyre is skipping rather than staying loaded.
Ordering this part
Specify axle, whether the part is a strut or a plain damper, the mounting type at each end (eye, pin, stud or fork), extended and compressed lengths, and whether the vehicle has electronically adjustable damping — an adaptive damper cannot be replaced with a conventional one.
Fitment is confirmed from the VIN and from the number on the part being replaced, not from the model name alone: engine variant, trim, market specification and mid-life revisions all change part numbers within the same model year. Send the VIN, the model year, the transmission type, whether the vehicle is left- or right-hand drive, and a photograph of the old part showing any number printed on it.
