Nous sommes fiers de vous proposer les amortisseurs exclusifs GoWesty/Bilstein Extra Heavy Duty pour les véhicules à 2 roues motrices !

Il n’y a tout simplement pas d’amortisseur de sa catégorie supérieur à un Bilstein pour un véhicule de route. Il s’agit de l’amortisseur monotube original chargé à l’azote, utilisé en équipement d’origine sur de nombreuses automobiles de grandes marques à travers le monde. Depuis des années, le modèle standard « Heavy Duty » est le meilleur amortisseur que vous puissiez acheter pour votre Vanagon à 2 roues motrices. Cependant, à l’exception des modèles hard-top Vanagon les moins équipés (véhicules sans aménagement camping ni aménagement intérieur), ils sont tout simplement trop souples. Si vous recherchez un confort très souple, les amortisseurs HD classiques vous conviendront. Mais si, comme la plupart d’entre nous, vous conduisez un véhicule plus lourd et préférez une stabilité accrue, nous vous recommandons vivement les XHD. Personne ne les a jamais retournés au motif qu’ils seraient trop rigides, et vous serez probablement d’accord : ils sont tout juste ce qu’il faut !

Cette version exclusive « XHD (Extra Heavy Duty) » est née d’une collaboration entre les ingénieurs de GoWesty et ceux de Bilstein. Les amortisseurs GoWesty XHD Bilstein sont identiques aux amortisseurs HD classiques à l’extérieur et s’installent exactement de la même manière.

La différence réside entièrement dans les réglages des soupapes internes, qui permettent d’obtenir les résultats suivants :

• un amortissement des rebonds 80 % plus important à l’avant et 40 % plus important à l’arrière que celui du modèle HD
• un amortissement de la compression 57 % plus important à l’avant et 20 % plus important à l’arrière que celui du modèle HD


Garantie limitée à vie : Les amortisseurs GoWesty Bilstein XHD bénéficient de la garantie limitée à vie standard de Bilstein, incluse sur tous leurs amortisseurs.

Better ride

Was a little nervous getting the extra heavy duty but took a chance and was a great choice. The ride is stiffer but a good stiffer

Suffice to say, Bilstein's are one of the best shocks you can buy for any vehicle but adding the Extra Heavy Duty for my full camper Westy made a big difference! Not the stiff ride I was used to but much more comfortable even fully loading the interior.

Excellent

I’ve learned to trust GoWesty. The description of these shocks was spot on. I have a 1991 carat. Tin top. I keep it loaded down with camping gear. The extra heavy was perfect. Thanks!

Installed on a 1990 VW Westy 2WD, I am the 3rd Owner, front rear shocks were toast...i could compress them with my hands...all new springs, hardware, shocks., now she is riding great...rear disc conversion in the future

Amazing! EXACTLY what my super heavy westy needed. Lovely upgrade from the standard HD bilsteins. 10/10

Tintop on Bilsteins

Blown out rear Bilsteins and front Fox shocks from SW washboard roads and lowering the van backdown on wide Yokohamas it was time for the Extra Heavy Duty shocks. Night and day difference! The shocks actually do what they are supposed to be doing. They do feel a touch stiff for my tintop but I'm sure over the years that will melow out. If you're not into enthusiastically driving your tintop like I do then Heavy Duty might be a better choice.

yes. that’s it.

yes yes yes yes yes. my terrible suspension days are gone. i don’t do a swinging nose dive every time i stopped. it’s like i went from driving a moon rover to a tank. they are stiff; you will feel bumps quite a bit, but you won’t go swinging everywhere. my shocks were blown, but not anymore. easy job really anyone can do themselves.

Great Shocks

I put these on my 84 2WD. Installation was easy. Shocks are great. I've now gone on several offroad adventures (might have wished I had 4WD) and they performed wonderfully. I put these in at the same time as my new springs and my suspension is solid.

Easy install, Great product.

These were an easy replacement for my worn out shocks although I did have to grind the width of the bushings down a tiny bit for fit into the rear lower mount on my 82 Westy. The ride handling is much better than the Bilstein HDs I had on a previous van which were very floaty.

High quality

Quality shocks = smooth ride. Very satisfied with purchase

Quality shocks

The quality of the construction is very high and the powder coating is well done.

Will need to install these after I get all of my parts back from powder coating.

Great Shock!

Vans always feel great with shocks on and feel similarly to the Fox's on the road. You really need to be on washboards all day without any brakes to feel the difference, imo.
