ORI STX Gen 3 Remote Reservoir Strut

ORI STX Remote Reservoir Strut / Shock - Gen 3

Newest Generation 3 Reservoir Struts include the following enhancements : 

• Double return oil flow.
• Improved compression damping adjustment—easy turn knob.
• Compression damping stages spaced for improved full-stroke damping.
• Velocity-sensing compression damping improved to provide smooth ride in choppy terrain, firm support in jumps.
• Seal glands redesigned to withstand extreme pressure spikes.
• Overall, GEN3 is vastly improved to handle short course and  endurance race environments. Your suspension should be tough enough to take a beating so you and your car don’t.

First shipments will be in January 2025, get your order placed today!

Top Choice

The ORI STX Strut is a Top Choice among many Off Road Enthusiasts with an emphasis on it's amazing performance and unparalleled Stability in the Off Road Rock Crawling and Ultra 4 Racing Categories.  The Remote Reservoir Strut allows adjustable compression and rebound with improved cooling for high speed applications.  While these features are typically not needed for Rock Crawling alone, they become very important for high speed racing.  The Remote Reservoir allows you to be able to determine where the reservoir is mounted via a remote Thermalplastic Hose (Not Included)

Remote Reservoir

Remote reservoirs enhance the performance features of your STX Strut:

• When remote reservoirs are combined with an STX Strut, they provide a total of 4-, or 5-stage modular compression damping.
• 24-position external compression damping adjustment
• More oil capacity for longer stroke compression damping
• Integral reservoir can be rotated to any position 360° around the strut body and locked into place for ease of installation.
• Deep-fin design allows these reservoirs to double as external oil coolers for extreme desert heat and high-speed driving conditions.
• Remote Reservoir Struts are best suited for applications where mounting location and space are restricted.

In most applications : 

• No Limit Straps or Bump Stops are Required
• No Changing Springs or making Internal Valving Adjustments
• Typically Lighter and can fit 2" Longer ORI Struts Compared to Coilovers

STX Specs:

• Tunable Dual pressurized chambers – lower chamber is pressurized to achieve stability and help prevent unloading. The upper chamber is pressurized to set ride height
• 5 stage compression damping 
• 24-position external compression damping adjustment 
• High load capacity – 1900lbs per strut
• Compact and lightweight
• 7 position externally adjustable rebound damping
• End of stroke cushioning
• Cooling fins - Improved design for heat dissipation
• Internal hardened chrome steel cylinder
• Spherical bearings for 1/2" and 5/8" mounting options
• 5000 psi seals
• Anodized outer coating – Prevents corrosion
• Made from high grade billet 6061 aluminum
• Stainless steel internal components, Chrome Plated Piston Shafts

STX struts feature unique dual nitrogen charged chambers for unmatched stability in off-road suspension and are fully tunable to obtain any level of stability, ride height, and spring rate desired simply by adjusting nitrogen pressure in the upper / lower chamber.  

Built into the compression damping is a 1 inch hydraulic bump stop, high flow oil return passageways, and a velocity sensitive compression valve that helps prevent bottoming out on hard hits to make for a 3 stage compression damping stroke.

With a compact 3.2" body, 2" piston, and a 1.75" diameter piston shaft, the struts are compact enough to fit under most builds, and strong enough to hold up in harshest conditions. They come in a variety of standard lengths (8"- 20"), and can be custom ordered up to 30" travel length. 

In many situations you will be able to save 44 lbs and gain 2" of Travel when switching from popular Coilover Shocks to ORI Struts, due to it's compact design.  Refer to the ORI Sizing Chart to match up Compressed / Extended lengths against your coilovers to verify.

Remote Reservoir Hose / Fittings (Not Included)

Thermalplastic hose and fittings are not included due to the wide variation in hose length requirements. Once you receive and mock up your reservoir mounting location, Please measure the hose lengths you need. We can supply you a quote from ORI or you can often source them from a local hose and rubber shop. Thermalplastic hose needs to be a minimum rating of 2000psi.
