Putra,
You've made a very good point here.
The original OE dampers appears to have very low rebound damping.
So, if you've changed the springs to stiffer ones, the stock dampers cannot possibly control the much stronger rebound force. This causes the 'floaty'/bouncy" feeling many owners encounter.

The silicon damper limits/controls the updown movement of the spring, and this certainly reduces the load on the absorbers.

Will consider to put the front buffer later on Wink


Bro Decavalera, put oledi by now ? Put all 4 wheels or front only baru got effects ? RM200-300 per piece is really costly. Now shud be cheaper all 4 costed RM250-300... Idea

bro's

Just to check as I noticed it's more of a cheap and temp solution. What's the life span of the dampers?

Any idea? Idea Idea

This damper seems to be a good mod. Are they made of different material, like silicon, rubber etc???

Saw in the net that 2 pairs can cost as low as RM120 ....
