3DM Suspension specializes in sales and service of Öhlins dampers and parts. 3DM utilizes one of two different types of Öhlins damper technologies for all of our suspension kits: Monotube Dual Flow Valve (DFV) or Twin Tube Pressure Balanced (TTX). For more information of each type, please read below.
Monotube Dual Flow Valve (DFV)
Featuring the patented dual flow valve DFV technology, these dampers are made for enthusiasts who want a damper with simple adjustment yet delivers sharp response and precise control without compromising ride quality. They are ideal for sports cars and track cars that need to perform in a wide range of conditions.
Road Sport: Developed by 3DM, these kits incorporate spring rates and valving (when applicable) that are geared more towards street use but yet still pack a punch for the occasional trip to the track.
Road & Track: Developed by Öhlins, these kits offer exceptional traction and control on track days while retaining a refined ride quality for road use. 3DM offers these kits as they come or pre-assembled so they are ready to run (RTR) out of the box per the Öhlins mounting instructions.
Track Day: These kits come with same dampers found in the Road & Track kits but with stiffer Swift springs that are geared more towards the track but are still compliant enough to be able to drive on the street to and from the track.
DFV Motorsport Damper Sets: These DFV dampers are valved with track focused spring rates in mind. When paired with spherical bearing mounts, the system delivers sharp response and precise control for both the casual or serious racer.
Twin Tube Pressure Balanced (TTX)
Derived from open wheel, GT, and Touring car racing... these dampers are designed for serious drivers who demand racing-grade performance out of their canyon carving, track day, or racing vehicle. The twin-tube pressure balanced technology allows for independent compression and rebound adjustment with no need for a clunky external canister that is prone to leaking. For the most discerning driver and race teams, there are 3 way and 4 way adjustment options including blow off valves in order to further fine-tune your setup for maximum grip and steering precision at the limit.
TTX Motorsport Damper Sets
3DM Suspension specializes in custom fitting Öhlins TTX dampers to your vehicle. We can adapt them to your current mounts and springs or alternatively we can recommend and spec out all the accessories to create a complete kit that is ready to bolt up to your vehicle out of the box.
