There is a common misconception within the automotive industry that OE replacement gas springs are only available from main dealers. This is no longer the case, with a fast-growing range of matching quality gas springs available throughout the aftermarket.
It is important for technicians and mechanics to understand the design & manufacturing process in order to quell any misconceptions the customer may have and communicate the benefits of aftermarket gas springs.
