Honda Fit Complete Shock

This Ex-Japan “complete” shock absorber for the Honda Fit is a full strut assembly. Unlike buying a bare shock, this unit includes the coil spring, top mounting, and dust boots. For Honda Fit owners, choosing a complete Ex-Japan assembly is often preferred because it avoids the labor costs and safety risks associated with compressing springs to swap individual components.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Pre-Assembled Convenience: Since the spring and mount are already attached, it is a “plug-and-play” installation, significantly reducing the time your car spends at the garage.

• OEM Spring Tension: These springs are tuned by Honda for the specific weight of the Fit (including hybrid batteries in GP models), ensuring your car doesn’t “sag” or feel too stiff, which can happen with generic new springs.

• Genuine Top Mounts: Includes the original Japanese rubber top mounts which are famous for their longevity and ability to silence “knocking” noises when driving over small bumps.

• Treated Components: The strut body usually features its original anti-corrosion coating from Japan, offering better protection against the elements than many cheap aftermarket parts.

Performance Benefits:

• Sharp Handling: Restores the “go-kart” feel that the Honda Fit is known for by ensuring the strut reacts precisely to steering inputs.

• Tire Longevity: By keeping the wheel firmly planted on the road, these shocks prevent “cupping” or uneven wear on your tires.
