SUSPENSION KITS

GAZ GT:A very extensive range of telescopic dampers for both modern and classic car applications. These units can be built in various open and closed lengths and will adjust bump and rebound off a single control knob.

GAZ  GAI: A range of top adjustable inserts that alter rebound only but are available with various bump rates for road or competition cars manufactured from the 1960’s onwards.

GAZ GS: This is a fixed spring seat unit to take standard diameter coil springs with the added benefit of adjustable damping from a single control knob. These units are manufactured mainly for the classic car market to retain original equipment ride height but lengths can be adjusted to customers requirements if the car is to be lowered or raised for competition use.

GAZ DA: Our flagship range of independent bump and rebound adjustable coilover units designed for motor sport use. These units have an all aluminium body and end fittings to take bearings or metalastic bushes. These units have a 16mm piston rod and are fitted with a progressive rate closed cell bump stop. These units can be installed from vertical to horizontal as there is a gas cell fitted in the outer reservoir. Gaz offers a total rebuild and revalve service to back up this high quality product.

GAZ GP: A vast range of height and damping adjustable units for road and competition use. These units are available in two diameters 1.1/4” o.d. mainly to take 1.9” i.d. coils. These units have a 12mm piston rod and a gas cell fitted in the outer reservoir. The 2” body units are available with 12-14 or 16mm rods and a wide range of spring seat sizes. These are also fitted with a gas cell to prevent cavitation and resist fade. All units are available with bearings bonded or polyurethane bushes.

GAZ Gold: Most of our telescopic range and all types of coilover units are produced with a gas cell in the outer reservoir. This helps prevent cavitation. The units are then filled with a multi grade high viscosity index fluid to help resist fade under extreme conditions. Roller bearing mounts are an optional extra offered by Gaz for these units. Please call for prices.

GAZ GHA Kits

Gaz height adjustable kits are primarily made for the modified road car market. The main features of these kits are:

• On car damping adjustment
• Shortened body and stroke lengths to allow a -25 to -65mm ride height adjustment
• The units have a coarse acme form thread for ease of adjustment and to minimise corrosion the unit is zinc plated.
• All units are provided with high quality coil springs in various rates and diameters. Spring rates can be altered on request to suit customers requirements.
• When a coilover is unable to be installed a separate damper and rear coil spring with a variable spring platform is used so the kit retains full height adjustment.

GAZ GGA Kits

Gaz Gold height adjustable kits are a premium range of suspension units designed for tarmac motorsport and the serious track day enthusiast.

Most of the GHA Listings are available in the Gold range with the addition of struts kits for the classic and retro car market i.e. Lotus, Cortinas, Escort, Mexicos, Capris, Lancia Intergrale and Evo‘s.
The features are:-

• Front and rear units adjust bump and rebound from a single control knob on the side of the unit.
• Struts and semi struts have 62mm bodies for increased oil capacity. These units are fitted with 22mm diameter induction hardened piston rods that are hard chrome plated for strength and durability.
• All units have multi lip sealing. The outer seal is a metal encased wiper to clean the piston rod. This in turn extends main seal performance and oil retention under extreme conditions.
• All the Gold range are fitted with a gas cell in the outer reservoir and filled with a high viscosity index multi grade oil to prevent cavitation and reduce fade in motor racing conditions.
• The coilovers and telescopic units in this range utilise lightweight billet alloy components where possible, i.e. bases, end fittings, seats, lockrings, rod guides and gland nuts. The outer tube is steel with a nickel coating to provide the best anti corrosive finish possible. All outer alloy components are anodised.
• A full range of springs are stocked at the factory for road and motorsport use.

All units in our ranges can be purchased individually or repaired by return in the event of an accident.
