Vito W447 Rear Shock Absorber Pair

Vito W447 Rear Shock Absorber Pair: a pair of rear shock absorbers.

Shocks, springs, arms, drop links, bearings and steering parts. Heavy duty options are for vans that run at or near full payload every day. The W447 Vito uses a Renault sourced 1.6 in the base models and Mercedes 2.1 and 2.0 in the rest, so the engine code decides almost every part.

Fitting

Labour guide: about 1 hour. Orders placed before 3pm on a working day are dispatched the same day from UK stock, with next day delivery on the standard service and timed or Saturday delivery available. A van off the road costs a business far more than the part, and that is what the stock holding is for. Send the registration or VIN with the order and we check the part against the build data before dispatch. Vans change specification mid run and between body, wheelbase and gross weight variants, and a quick check prevents a return and a second day off the road. Trade accounts get 30 day terms on approval, fleet pricing, a named account manager and a monthly consolidated invoice. Fleets with ten or more vans can have a price file and stock held against their registrations. We are an independent supplier of light commercial vehicle parts. We are not Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Vauxhall or Renault and are not appointed by them; the van names are their trademarks and are used to describe fitment. We stock OE supplier, genuine and premium aftermarket side by side and say which is which on every listing.

Which version to buy

OE Supplier is made by the firm that supplies the factory, in its own box. Same part, same line, the best value for a working van. Heavy Duty is uprated for vans that run at full payload, tow, or do multi drop urban work every day. Genuine is in the manufacturer's own packaging with the manufacturer's part number. For vans under warranty, on lease or with a dealer service history to protect.
