The EFS Elite Front Strut Shock Absorber (38-5656) is engineered to upgrade suspension performance for a wide range of modern dual-cab and SUV platforms, including the Holden/GM Colorado, Isuzu D-Max, Isuzu MU-X, LDV/Maxus T60, and Mazda BT-50 TF. Designed for vehicles running a 45 mm lift, this strut offers excellent comfort, precise control, and improved handling on uneven terrain.
Built with the EFS Dynamic Motion Control (DMC) valve system, this Elite-series strut continuously adapts damping forces in real time, delivering stable ride quality whether you’re towing, touring, or tackling rough tracks. The PIN top and EYE lower mount ensure correct fitment for high-load, high-travel front ends.
Each unit is sold individually, and two struts are required per vehicle. The package includes an EFS strut top cap and fitting kit for a complete and professional installation.
