Product Details: Front Right Shock Absorber / Strut Assembly - LR031667

This genuine-equivalent front right shock absorber is a direct-fit, twin-tube hydraulic suspension component engineered for the Land Rover Freelander 2 (L359). It works by converting kinetic energy from road impacts into thermal energy, which is then dissipated through the hydraulic fluid to ensure consistent damping performanc. This part is designed to restore the factory ride quality and handling characteristics of your vehicle.

Core Function
The shock absorber is a critical safety and comfort component that controls the oscillation of the vehicle's spring. By dampening the compression and rebound of the suspension, it ensures the tyre maintains consistent contact with the road, providing stability, precise steering response, and a smooth ride for passengers .This specific unit is for the front-right (passenger side) of the vehicl.

Installation Notes

• It is highly recommended to replace shock absorbers in pairs (both front-left and front-right) to maintain balanced handling and consistent damping

• After installation, a professional wheel alignment is strongly recommended

• Always use new mounting hardware (nuts and bolts) as they are often torque-to-yield fasteners

• Professional installation is highly recommended

Note: This is a direct replacement for vehicles with standard factory suspension. Verify compatibility using your vehicle's VIN number before purchasing.

A: Signs of a failing bumper bracket include visible damage or deformation, misaligned bumper panels, unusual noises from the front end, or if the bumper appears loose or sagging on one side.

A: For optimal results, we recommend professional installation. Key considerations include ensuring proper alignment of all mounting points, checking for additional damaged components, and verifying all fasteners are properly torqued to specification.
