43 Series:  Steel-body, high-pressure, MONO-TUBE shock

The 43 series shock has EXTREMELY low rod pressure (12 lbs.). 

          Low rod pressure means low gas spring rate changes. 

The 43 series shock has less build-up of gas pressure at higher temperatures than any other brand shock. 

          This keeps the car from "binding up" even in the longest races! 

          The car will stay "tight" even on the slickest tracks. 

The body diameter is 1.975" and the rod diameter is 11mm. 

The 43 series shock comes with 1/2" I.D. spherical bearings.

*Denotes Linear Valving - 

When compared to Carrera's "regular" valvings (considered to be "degressive");

Linear Valvings are softer at low speeds (less than 3 in/sec) and stiffer at high speeds (greater than 3 in/sec).

Coil-Over Kits:

Carrera kits are simply "the best" - for engineered QUALITY.

The "threaded tube" locks up tight when installed on ANY shock 

     (fits AFCO, Bilstein, Koni and QA1, too) - and works better!

This allows easy "one hand" adjustment. 

No need for two hands, pliers or pipe wrench and skinned knuckles!
