Jaguar X-Type X400 Rear Shock Absorber Sport Left Right N/O/S 6X43-18080-DB

Jaguar X-Type X400 Rear Shock Absorber Sport Left Right N/O/S is an original suspension system component designed for installation on either the left or right side of the rear axle. Thanks to its sport characteristics, it provides more precise handling, better body control, and more stable vehicle behavior in corners, while remaining a solution structurally matched to Jaguar X-Type models.

Purpose and vehicle placement

The presented shock absorber belongs to the Shock absorbers and struts category and has been designed specifically for the rear axle of the Jaguar X-Type X400. The design is intended for installation on both the left and right side, which facilitates part selection during suspension service and allows for maintaining consistent driving properties on both sides of the vehicle. The element operates in a key zone responsible for vibration damping, body stabilization, and maintaining tire grip on the road surface. When properly selected, a sport shock absorber contributes to:

• more direct rear axle response to steering inputs,
• reduction of body roll during dynamic maneuvers,
• better maintenance of the driving line during braking and acceleration.

Sport characteristics and driving properties

The sport version of the rear shock absorber for the Jaguar X-Type X400 has been developed for drivers expecting significantly stiffer, more controlled suspension performance. Compared to standard solutions, this element provides:

• increased stability at higher speeds,
• more predictable vehicle behavior in fast corners,
• consistent damping of irregularities, which improves tire contact with the road surface. Thanks to the preservation of factory geometry and mounting points, the shock absorber works with other suspension components in a manner consistent with the manufacturer's specifications, which is particularly important in premium class cars such as Jaguar.

Original origin and condition of the element

The shock absorber comes from the Jaguar line and is a factory component used in the X-Type X400 model. Original origin means maintaining the proper performance characteristics, compatibility with mounts, and correct cooperation with stock springs and other rear suspension elements. The product is offered as a used element, which allows for significantly reducing repair costs while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. This solution is particularly beneficial in the case of comprehensive suspension service when more than one component is being replaced.

Selection, compatibility, and application

The Jaguar X-Type X400 Rear Shock Absorber Sport Left Right N/O/S has been designed as a part dedicated to a specific vehicle platform, which minimizes the risk of installation problems and eliminates the need for modifications. When selecting, it is worth paying attention to:

• compatibility with the body version and suspension system of the specific vehicle,
• installation in pairs on the axle to maintain uniform damping characteristics,
• condition of other rear suspension elements (springs, bushings, control arms). A suspension system configured in this way allows for fully utilizing the potential of the sport shock absorber, improving handling precision and control over the vehicle.

Technical support and additional materials

To better understand the impact of shock absorbers on safety and vehicle handling, it is worth reading the guide material discussing the construction and service of the suspension – detailed information can be found in the article Suspension system – a comprehensive guide to shock absorbers, control arms, and stabilizers. If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the suspension zone in your Jaguar and need other elements from the same group, such as rear shock absorbers, front shock absorbers, or complete struts, check the available parts in the Jaguar Shock absorbers and struts category.
