It can also be used for medium duty applications such as motorhome and conversion vehicles. LT Unique Benefits +The high gas pressure allows the shock to damp vibrations immediately, This gives the diver enhanced contol of the vehicle + Can be mounted at any angle (including upside-down) due to its unique construction + Unique adjustabilty feature allows owner to increase rebound forces manually Primary Applications ‘The monotube is most popular in our automobile and light ‘tuck offering. We also use it for some motorhome and spe- cially applications. Characteristics - 30 Series CHARACTERISTIC.

We have developed applications ranging from motorhome to heavy truck to transit with this shock. It is very durable and gives a comfortable yet controlled ride. Unique Benefits + Independent bump and rebound control allow for high re bound forces without sacrifice of ride quality + Patented slow-opening foot valve for greater comfort + Hydraulic rebound stop protects air suspension components + 100% adjustment of rebound forces possible without use of special tools + 40% more olin reservoir than needed for shook to function properly Primary Applications These two series of shocks span the entire heavy duty line. You wil find applications for class 6-8 trucks, transit buses, over the road coaches, motorhomes, emergency vehicles, and many specialty applications.

Load Dependent Damper ‘Suspension designers are developing more vehi- cles with very low unladen weights and very high laden weights. Conventional damping character- ties cannot correct for this because the forces are either to high for an empty vehicle or to soft for a laden vehicle, Koni has developed the load dependent damper to connect to the suspension air bags. These dampers will automatically adjust the rebound damping force due to the varying pressure in the air bags. This will result in optimal comfort and road handling over the entire load range.IK@O REE ivus « coacs Bus and Coach Vohicla Yer OEMS Front OEMs Rear ‘ACE Ball Bus STR 77 [e-27 and CH Oy Bu 90-1868 Bus Serial #1051 of 90-1868 [cart ler Bus to #7088 90-1868 Alte Bue (Caerodi, tonal Foraneo I [as —T ar) Bus. 50 See Wa Bi Sg Sip Woe ‘Deck and 12 Bus - Spring Susp 30-1868 90-1666. ‘Deck and 172 Bus - Air Suspension .t51-SF 3-1651-S°7 ur Liner - Spring Suspension 90-1868 90-1068 Maininer- Ar Suspension t951-SF1 W.1851-SF1 Blupbird Bus Bis i asia SASSTSPL 14974 1B51-SP1 [e-Bvs (at svepondk 1746165 BEASTSPL ‘Coach (Coaches w OF Number SHS STST-SPT SOTSETSPT Models w see! spring suspension 3188728 30.2208 "96-2309 E5520 20,1887 09 1087, Don Oudaten (oe Now Fiver) Dina Bus meant WEST SSESSFT Davado 90:2055-5P2. 90-1868-5°1 Paradiso 50:2255-SP 90-1868-5°1 tag ae 90-1668-SP6 [Wagaio TESST 90-1869-5°1 tag 20-1668-5P6 Sivor Eagle Bus [Coaches w/O€ Nunber SBE.
