Classic & Historic Suspension Rebuild Service
Can’t find replacement suspension for your classic car? GAZ can rebuild, modify and remanufacture suspension components for classic, historic and competition vehicles, including applications where replacement parts are obsolete or no longer commercially available.
Suspension Rebuild and Conversion Services
GAZ provides specialist rebuild, modification and remanufacturing services for classic, historic and competition suspension. From restoring original dampers to converting MacPherson struts into modern adjustable units, each project can be tailored to the vehicle and its intended use.
Original MacPherson struts can be converted to accept GAZ damper internals, allowing the original vehicle-specific strut assembly to be retained while benefiting from modern GAZ damping technology. Once converted, the strut becomes fully rebuildable and serviceable by GAZ in the future, providing a long-term solution for classic and historic vehicles where replacement suspension may be difficult or impossible to source.
As part of the conversion, original struts can also be upgraded with a threaded outer tube to provide height adjustment and a top-mounted damping adjuster for precise on-car tuning. This allows an otherwise obsolete original strut to be transformed into a modern, adjustable suspension unit while retaining the original vehicle-specific mounting arrangement.
For motorsport and historic competition applications, GAZ Gold specification conversions are also available. Our motorsport-level adjustable damper provides simultaneous bump and rebound adjustment at a fixed ratio, allowing the damping characteristics to be tuned using a single external adjuster. Gold conversions can be supplied with fixed or adjustable spring platforms depending on the vehicle and intended application.
Every rebuilt or converted unit is engineered and assembled in-house at GAZ, before being individually tested on our LABA7 damper dynamometer to verify its performance prior to despatch.
