TEIN Street Basis Damper is the evolution of the popular BASIC coilover
model. It incorporates new internal and external components, newly
developed coatings and new manufacturing processes.
TEIN engineers have spent many hours developing new seals and internal
components to improve durability and product life. This was one of our
major goals for the new model.
Newly developed ZT coating for improved durability and hassle-free
ride height adjustment. TEIN developed this coating in-house after
stringent test and analysis procedures. Our engineers tested different
coats, application methods, cleaning processes, etc in our own brine
salt water testing machine which simulates heavy solvents/ road salts
used in cold weather climates.
Slip-fit threaded adjustment tube. Allows for damper body and threaded
sleeve to be thoroughly coated for rust/ corrosion protection.
The slip-fit allows a more thorough coating on the threaded section as well as powder coated damper body.
Revised Aluminum Spring Seat and Delrin Thrust Washer are light weight
and durable. This combination allows for smooth ride height adjustment.
The new spring seats have a larger contact surface area and eliminate
the need for a rubber spring seat.
