Koni 8245 1032 Special Active Twin-Tube Low Pressure Gas Shock Absorber - Red

The Koni 8245 1032 Special Active (Red) is a premium twin-tube, low-pressure gas shock absorber from the KONI 8245 Series. Built around KONI's patented Frequency Selective Damping (FSD) Technology — also known as ACTIVE Technology — this shock automatically reads and responds to road conditions, delivering a refined balance of performance handling and everyday ride comfort without the need for electronic systems or driver input.

Unlike conventional shock absorbers that force a compromise between sport handling and smooth ride quality, the Special Active design simultaneously controls large body motions and cornering forces while independently smoothing out expansion joints, rough pavement, and road imperfections. The result is enhanced grip, reduced body roll, and improved passenger comfort in a single unit.

Key Features:

• Frequency Selective Damping (ACTIVE Technology) — Patented passive self-adjusting damping that responds instantly to driving inputs and road surface changes
• Twin-tube low-pressure gas construction — Provides a consistent, fade-resistant damping force for long-term reliability
• Superior handling without compromise — Controls body roll and cornering forces while smoothing rough roads and expansion joints
• No electronic components required — Delivers performance rivaling expensive electronically controlled suspension systems
• OE spring compatible — Designed for use with original equipment (OE) springs; not recommended for use with aftermarket lowering springs
• Must be installed in axle pairs — Always replace both left and right shocks on the same axle simultaneously
• Red finish — Signature KONI Special Active red anodized body finish

KONI has been engineering high-performance damping solutions since 1857 and manufacturing automotive shock absorbers since 1932. The Special Active series is trusted as original equipment by leading global automakers and is backed by KONI's no-compromise approach to product performance and durability.
