STC3769 is a front shock absorber assembly fitted to the front suspension of Defender 110 and Defender 130 models from VIN VA998900 to VIN WA159806. The damper converts suspension movement into controlled hydraulic damping, reducing bounce after impacts and limiting body roll to help maintain stable steering response and tyre contact with the road. This item replaces part numbers RTC4637, STC290 and STC2853. Use the compatibility data below to confirm fitment against your V.I.N.

Frequently Asked Questions
The STC3769 front shock absorber converts suspension movement into hydraulic damping, sitting between the front axle and the chassis to reduce bounce and control body roll. Failure commonly occurs through fluid leakage or internal wear, which can cause increased vibration, uneven tyre wear and reduced braking stability; replacing the assembly restores the designed suspension behaviour.
