    Engineered for Performance
    • Large truck size 41 mm sintered metal piston
    • Nitrogen Gas Cell to maintain oil viscosity and dampening performance
    • Increased oil capacity vastly improving the shock absorbers ability to dissipate heat and operate cooler over long distances and constant high speeds
    • Viton seal & high temperature oil to withstand higher operating temperatures longer, outlasting standard oils and rubber seals
    Nitro Max shock absorbers have been designed to withstand even the harshest of Australian conditions
    Nitro Max achieve enhanced performance and longevity through:
    1. Larger 60 & 70mm external body sizes
    2. Nitrogen Gas cell inserted between the external tube and the working tube
    3. Improved dampening
    4. High temperature oil
    5. Seals resistant to elevated temperatures

    Struts

    The all new addition to the RAW 4×4 range brings uncompromising toughness without the loss of comfort & control. Utilising a large 60 mm body, the Nitro Max strut significantly increases oil capacity over the OE strut allowing you to go longer, further & harder. Enhanced Performance
    • Class leading 41 mm & 45mm piston sizes to soak up the punishing terrain
    • Nitrogen gas & high temp oil to eliminate aeration inside the shock absorber whilst maintaining oil viscosity for consistent dampening performance
    • Multi lip HNBR seal to retain oil at high temperatures and keep the dust out
    • Heavy duty bonded rubber lower bushes to support the weight of the vehicle and provide additional articulation.
    • One piece stem and end cap with 360° welds on all fittings for secure vehicle fitment
    • Thick gauge steel
    Nitro Max strut have been designed to withstand even the harshest of Australian conditions.
    Nitro Max achieve enhanced performance and longevity through:
    1. Larger 60mm external body size
    2. Low pressure nitrogen gas charged to resist strut fade
    3. Improved dampening
    4. High temperature oil
    5. Seals resistant to elevated temperatures
    6. One piece end cap & stem (Only on certain part numbers)
  • Quicker, easier, safer.

    Our preassembled  struts make changing your front suspension faster and easier. It comes ready to install directly onto your vehicle without the need for a spring compressor. This not only makes the job quicker but also safer for the installer. (Please note: Suspension installation needs to be carried out by a qualified mechanic.) Extensively tested in our lab and in the field as a complete system to bring you the best combination of comfort and control for your vehicle.

    Lab and real world testing

  • Manufacturing

    The RAW Predator shock absorber range are manufactured in Australia based on a fast acting monotube design, incorporating a unique variable flow piston to reduce body roll and rapidly respond to the terrain ahead. The design of the Predator is one of the most efficient heat dissipating shock absorber designs due to the single wall construction resulting in consistent performance on & off road with sharper steering response, less body roll and improved traction.
    Follow the Evolutionary Path
    The evolution of the RAW Predator monotube continues, making it stronger and more durable whilst maintaining that fine balance between comfort and control.
    1. Increased rod diameter for coil over shocks. All coil over shock absorbers now have an 18mm diameter piston rod for extra strength and durability. (Except Part no. PR352)
    2. The Predator monotube has one of the largest bore sizes on the market at a massive 46mm in diameter. This helps the shock stay cooler for longer under extreme working conditions.
    3. Heavy duty low friction seal package with a larger bearing surface has been added to the Predator design. This helps withstand additional side load in hard off road conditions and retain oil under extreme temperatures.
    4. Bump cap & wiper seal designed to keep dust and grime out.
    5. Alloy floating piston separating the oil from the gas inside the shock absorber. This component has been manufactured to be lighted and stronger improving overall response time & reaction speed of the shock absorber.
    6. High pressure nitrogen gas.
