� The multi-speed valving characteristics of the damper (low, mid and<br />
high relative piston velocity) permit flexibility in tuning the damper.<br />
� Different valving circuits in compression (jounce) and extension<br />
(rebound) of the damper permits further flexibility.<br />
� Also generates forces that are a function of position, acceleration and<br />
temperature.<br />
