Shock Absorber Tool 18mm Double D for Volvo HGV Cab

A shock absorber tool made for working on Volvo HGV cab suspension, helping with both removal and installation of cab shock absorbers. The socket arrangement allows you to hold the piston rod while turning the screw cap, which makes the job more controlled and far less awkward than trying to manage both parts separately.

Used in truck workshops, fleet maintenance environments and commercial vehicle servicing, this tool suits jobs where Volvo HGV cab shocks need to be removed, refitted or replaced. It is also suitable for working on the upper base nut, so it covers more than one stage of the repair. For mechanics carrying out regular suspension servicing or cab maintenance, it helps keep the job straightforward when access and control matter.

The tool uses an 18mm single hex outer socket with a 10 x 7.5mm double D inner profile. That combination is intended specifically for counter-holding the piston rod while the screw cap is turned, giving better control during manual shock absorber work. It can also be used alongside the CT7367 truck shock absorber spring compressor where needed. For regular workshop use, having the correct profile for the job helps avoid struggling with unsuitable tools and makes repeat servicing more manageable.
