Long Travel Off-Road Racing Suspension | STX Strut/Shock

STX Specs:

• Tunable Dual pressurized chambers – lower chamber is pressurized to achieve stability and help prevent unloading. The upper chamber is pressurized to set ride height
• 3 stage compression damping –
  • 1^st stage – compressed nitrogen
  • 2^nd stage – 2.5 weight ultra light shock fluid
  • 3^rd stage – 1” hydraulic bump stop
• High load capacity – 1900lbs per strut
• Compact and lightweight
• 7 position externally adjustable rebound damping
• End of stroke cushioning
• Cooling fins - Improved design for heat dissipation
• Internal hardened chrome steel cylinder
• Spherical bearings for ½” & 5/8” mounting bolts
• 5000 psi seals
• Anodized outer coating – Prevents corrosion

ORI's STX Strut is a popular and versatile offroad strut/shock combination for rock crawlers, trucks, buggies, desert racers, and other custom off-road builds. The STX struts feature unique dual nitrogen charged chambers for unmatched stability in off-road suspension, and are fully tunable to obtain any level of stability, ride height, and spring rate desired. The STX is designed with high grade billet 6061 aluminum, stainless steel internal components, and chrome plated piston shafts to be light weight, durable, and compact. Built into the compression damping is a 1 inch hydraulic bump stop, high flow oil return passageways, and a velocity sensitive compression valve that helps prevent bottoming out on hard hits to make for a 3 stage compression damping stroke. With a compact 3.2" body, 2" piston, and a 1.75" diameter piston shaft, the struts are compact enough to fit under most builds, and strong enough to hold up in harshest conditions. They come in a variety of standard lengths (8"- 20"), and can be custom ordered up to 30" travel length. 

We now carry Barnes 4wd mounting brackets for ORI Struts! Feel free to contact us if we don't have what you need.

To increase the features and functionality of the STX, check out the available reservoir options!

PiggyBack Reservoirs

These are a cheap and easy to install addition to the STX Strut. They offer a softer spring rate to help with heavier applications, often used to soften road characteristics.These also help the wheels stuff easier, and make the ride less harsh all around.

ORI Struts with Integral Reservoirs

Built for heavy vehicles, competition rigs, desert racers, rocks bouncers and other extreme builds, the integral reservoirs give the struts a 24 position knob on the reservoir for compression tuning, additional 4 stage progressive compression valving in the reservoir, and features deep cooling fins on both the strut body and the reservoir for greatly improved heat dissipation. The Integral reservoirs also give the struts a greatly increased oil and nitrogen volume that softens the spring rate and gives the struts more compression oil to allow hydraulic compression damping through the entire stroke, effectively slowing the compression damping after full extension. This model is available assembled or in a kit version from the factory. Options with 3/4" hydraulic hose and fittings are also available in the remote reservoir version.

ORI Integral Reservoir Kit

The integral kit can be purchased and added to an existing base model STX strut. 

Barnes 4wd shock towers now available!

Need ORI Struts mounting hardware for your Jeep? Barnes 4wd shock towers are made to weld onto your stock frame and are constructed from durable 1/4" steel plate. With the ability to locate the mounting tabs to match ORI's 1.6" wide misalignment spacers, these are a great option to get you started, and will save you hours of custom fabrication time.
