Land Rover Part Number: RSC500290 - Front Shock Absorber with Fixings
RSC500290 is a front shock absorber supplied as a kit that includes one shock absorber together with the washers, caps and nuts required to fit it to the front suspension. The damper provides hydraulic damping for the front suspension, controlling compression and rebound by converting kinetic energy into heat through internal valving and fluid movement; this reduces oscillation after impacts and helps maintain consistent wheel contact. Fitted to Defender front suspension assemblies, the unit interfaces with springs and suspension links to manage vertical motion; inspect for oil leakage, damaged bushes or reduced damping to identify a worn damper.
