What does 'internally adjustable rebound' mean for this shock?

This means you can adjust how quickly the shock absorber extends after being compressed. You can fine-tune this setting to get the ride feel you prefer, from firmer to slightly softer.

Do I need to buy two of these shocks?

Yes, it's recommended to replace shock absorbers in pairs on the front axle. This ensures balanced handling and consistent performance on both sides of your vehicle.

What is the difference between this and a gas shock?

This is a non-gas shock, meaning it doesn't have pressurized nitrogen gas inside. Non-gas shocks often offer a smoother ride and are less prone to foaming in extreme conditions.

Product Details

KONI has been making suspension parts for a long time, and they're known for making well-built shocks that improve how a vehicle handles. This Koni Classic (Red) shock absorber is made specifically for the front of your 1970-1979 Volkswagen Transporter, including the Campmobile models from 1970-1974. If you're looking to get a better feel for the road and more stable handling out of your classic VW bus, this shock is a solid option.

This is a twin-tube, non-gas shock absorber, which means it uses a simple, reliable design. It's also internally adjustable for rebound, so you can fine-tune how the shock controls the spring's return motion. This adjustability lets you dial in the ride to your preference, whether you want a firmer feel for spirited driving or a slightly softer ride for cruising. The classic red finish also gives your suspension a distinctive look.

When you're replacing shocks on a vehicle like this, it's a good idea to replace them in pairs to ensure balanced performance. Make sure to check the manufacturer's instructions for the proper installation procedure.
