These replacement shafts are produced for SLF normal shocks on the BD7-2014 touring car chassis. The carbide titanium coating on the shaft surface is intended to reduce abrasion at the O-ring contact area, aiding in more consistent damper feel and extended service intervals. Four pieces are supplied for a complete car refresh.
Fitting is routine: remove shocks, open the shock bodies, extract the old shafts and check internal components, install the new shafts while verifying seal and piston condition, then reassemble and test for smooth damping and correct oil seating. This component is aimed at service and preservation of seals rather than altering tune points like springs or piston choices.
When tuning the car, consider this shaft as a durability upgrade: by limiting seal wear it keeps damping behavior predictable between rebuilds, so you can focus tuning changes on oil weight, piston configurations, and spring rates.
Install these shafts during BD7-2014 SLF rebuilds to protect seals and keep damper performance steady between services.
