Metal Construction: Built to Endure Extreme Forces
At the heart of this damper is a high-grade steel structure engineered to handle the demands of electric vehicle dynamics:
Heavy-duty cylinder: The steel body withstands internal pressures up to 3000 psi, ensuring consistent damping performance even during aggressive driving or heavy loads.
Reinforced piston rod: Chrome-plated and heat-treated to resist bending, it handles the vertical forces of potholes, curbs, and uneven roads without deformation.
Welded mounts: Precision-welded brackets distribute stress evenly to the chassis, preventing cracks or loosening over time.
The black powder coat finish adds a protective layer, shielding the metal from rust, road salt, and debris—critical for longevity in harsh climates.
How It Enhances Your Tesla’s Ride
This damper doesn’t just "absorb shocks"—it actively optimizes your driving experience:
Adaptive damping: Works with your Tesla’s suspension system to adjust resistance in real time, softening for highway comfort and stiffening for sharp turns.
Vibration control: Minimizes wheel bounce over rough surfaces, keeping tires in contact with the road for better traction and braking.
Noise reduction: The steel construction and tight tolerances reduce "clunking" or "squeaking" common in worn dampers, preserving your Tesla’s quiet cabin.
A failing damper reveals itself through symptoms like excessive bouncing, uneven tire wear, or a "floaty" feel at high speeds—all of which compromise safety and comfort.
Precision Fit for Seamless Installation
Designed as a direct OEM replacement, this front right damper installs with ease:
Bolt-on compatibility: Uses existing mounting points and hardware, requiring no modifications to the chassis or suspension arms.
Alignment-ready: Precisely positioned bushings ensure proper wheel alignment post-installation, maintaining Tesla’s factory-spec camber and toe settings.
Professional-grade hardware: Includes new lock nuts (where applicable) to secure the damper, preventing loosening under vibration.
Long-Term Reliability You Can Trust
Backed by a 24-month warranty, the 1044095-00-AX damper undergoes rigorous testing to meet automotive standards:
100,000+ cycle test: Simulates 100,000 miles of driving to ensure consistent performance.
Temperature testing: Functions reliably from -40°C to 80°C, adapting to extreme hot and cold conditions.
Salt spray test: 500+ hours of exposure to road salt mist to validate corrosion resistance.
For Tesla owners, the 1044095-00-AX Front Right Damper Assembly is more than a replacement part—it’s an investment in maintaining that signature Tesla ride: smooth, controlled, and confident. Trust in its metal strength and precision engineering to keep your vehicle performing at its best, mile after mile.
