If you???re looking to upgrade your ride, the Fortune Auto Generation 6 Internal Floating Piston might just be what you need. This isn???t just another coilover; it???s a serious piece of engineering that???s been fine-tuned for performance enthusiasts. The first thing you???ll notice is how much lighter it is compared to older models. Thanks to a low-drag Teflon band, it cuts down on stiction, which means your damper reacts faster to those bumps and dips in the road.
Now, let???s talk seals. The Fortune Auto 500 series damper shaft seals have been revamped to reduce drag by a whopping 40%. This improvement translates to less hysteresis and gives you better control over your inputs. The new seals are crafted from a special Buna rubber compound that strikes a solid balance between reliability and performance. Stronger seals mean better quality and performance, and trust me, you???ll feel the difference.
Moving on to the shims???these little disks play a big role in how your suspension feels. They cover the port holes on the piston and control fluid flow, which is what gives you the damping effect. With the Generation 6 dampers, you???re getting high-grade shim material made from Sandvik steel. This is crucial for matching shock absorbers precisely; even a tiny variation can change the damper???s force profile by 25%. So, yeah, they take this seriously.
Another cool feature is the bright dip anodizing process. This isn???t just for looks; it protects the 6061 forged aluminum from corrosion and oxidation, so your parts will stay looking sharp for years. Plus, the revised jetting and increased adjustment range give you more control over your damper settings. Each click you make is audible and has a noticeable impact on damping force???no guesswork here.
Fortune Auto has really nailed the balance with their piston shafts. After a lot of research, they???ve found the sweet spot between hardness and malleability, ensuring both safety and performance. They???ve also reinforced the brackets and mounting points, which adds to the overall strength and rigidity. Most setups come with OEM brake line tabs welded directly to the lower mounts, making installation cleaner and safer.
Lastly, the digressive piston technology is a game-changer. It allows for excellent low-speed force, giving you razor-sharp control when you need it. But don???t worry about sacrificing comfort; it blows off force to provide a smooth ride, even on rough surfaces.
