Nissan Shocks
On and off-road, the functionality of the Nissan Shocks is truly indispensable. As your vehicle goes through uneven pavements, the springs
and suspension continuously move up and down, subsequently giving the occupants
stressful ride. The spring and the suspension alone could cause excessive rattling
inside your vehicle cabin without the shock absorbers. The spring will basically
extend and release the energy it absorbs uncontrollably during a bump. To minimize
the effect of such reactions, the spring action should be reduced through dampening
its movements. It is the shocks’ responsibility to dampen the unwanted spring
reactions to facilitate the movements that are as quiet as running through smooth
road surfaces. In such manner, you get to enjoy a considerably comfortable ride
even during an off-road trek.
 Nissan shocks lessen spring movement by reducing the magnitude of vibratory motions by transforming
kinetic energy from the suspension into thermal energy, which is then dissipated
by the hydraulic fluid. The shocks are also considered as an oil pump normally
positioned in between the vehicle frame and the wheels. During a bump, the spring
of the suspension coils and uncoils. The energy produced from the movement of
the spring is transferred into the shock absorbers and into the piston where fluid
is allowed to leak through holes. Because the holes are small, the little amount
of fluid entering the tiny openings slows down the piston, and thus slowing down
the spring in turn. The Nissan shock undergoes two cycles, the compression cycle and the extension cycle. The compression
cycle occurs during the downward movement of the piston, compressing the fluid
in the chamber below the piston. The extension cycle occurs during the upward
movement of the piston where it compresses the fluid in the chamber on top of
the piston.

Comfort and convenience while traveling will not be possible without one particularly
important part of a vehicle’s suspension system – shocks or shock absorbers. As
their name indicates, these important automotive components absorb the vibrations
that are inevitable especially when driving through rough terrain.
Shock absorbers dampen the vibrations produced by the springs when the vehicle
hits a bump on the road so that the passengers will not have to suffer through
a sickening up-and-down motion when traveling. It is this up-and-down motion that
is the classic symptom of a broken or bad shock absorber. Shock absorbers also
perform an important safety function by keeping the vehicle under control after
going through bumps and potholes on the road.
You will almost always immediately recognize if your vehicle’s shock absorbers
are now defective. This is because comfort and convenience is seriously undermined.
Not only that, having bad shock absorbers in your vehicle is actually very dangerous
since the ride and handling is also impaired. If ever you notice the classic symptoms
of bad shock absorbers such as up-and-down motion, wandering, excessive vibration
and oscillation, you should immediately have it checked by a competent auto mechanic.
A qualified auto technician will also be able to determine if your shocks need
repairs or you may need to replace part or all of your shocks.
