Motion Control Suspension

MCS shocks are sold without springs, camber plates and other parts required for a complete installation.  Contact Rogue Engineering for specific details of what you may need for your car and application.

With over 50 years of experience in the racing suspension industry, Motion Control Suspension has created the newest and one of the most advanced damper systems in the market today. MCS products are designed with a blank canvas, a foundation of winning damper products, and no leftovers from existing designs constraining the result – the MCS damper is the absolute best product available..

• Damping characteristics are controlled precisely by controlling flow through small holes instead of forcing past traditional shim-stacks
• Large range of adjustment - no need to valve for spring changes
• Non-preloaded valve stack -smoother response without becoming harsh
• Swivel remote canister fittings -mount in any position and install easily
• Blow-off valve system - blows off with big impacts for more grip in demanding conditions
• Large piston rod diameter - more fluid displacement gives better low speed damper control
• Maximum fluid displacement -responds to small amounts of travel for today's low travel suspensions
• Adjustable gas pressure - affect total weight transfer, allowing the use of lighter spring rates without changing damping characteristics
• Damper bodies produced from the highest quality steel or aluminum, application dependant, and properly designed to take side-loads without binding or damage

1-Way Adjustable Non-Remote - The MCS 1WNR damper is a Single-adjustable damper. Well-mannered on the street and capable of making higher-rate springs feel smooth – crank up the damping levels and have the capability to go win races. 1WNR dampers have tremendous capability in a clean, easy to install and use package.

These dampers are packed with technical features but with an elegantly clean execution. The monotube design is very stable with more oil capacity and better heat dissipation than twin tube dampers. Large strut shafts give extremely high, low-friction side-load support unmatched by shocks inverted and converted for strut applications. The large main piston gives quick, accurate damper response and the divider piston separates oil and gas, eliminating cavitation which often causes noise and sloppiness.

All MCS 1WNR dampers have an adjustment range of 18 settings of rebound control and come standard with spring hardware. Springs and camber plates not included and can be ordered separately.

Built as an ‘entry-level’ (yet still race-capable and winning) damper, 1WNR dampers are upgradable to a reservoir type damper as your needs change. The modular design of MCS damper systems use interchangeable parts for an easy change into a 2-Way adjustable reservoir damper system, without the need to invest in a new package. All the MCS dampers are fully rebuildable, serviceable and can be custom-valved and upgraded any time.

2-Way Double Adjustable (available with and without REMOTE RESERVOIR) - The MCS 2WNR damper is a Double-adjustable damper with a unique adjustment mechanism for easy access and fast changes. Well-mannered on the street and capable of making higher-rate springs feel smooth – crank up the damping levels and have the capability to go win races. 2WNR dampers have tremendous capability in a clean, easy to install and use package.

These dampers are packed with technical features but with an elegantly clean execution. The monotube design is very stable with more oil capacity and better heat dissipation than twin tube dampers.

The large main piston gives quick, accurate damper response and the divider piston separates oil and gas, eliminating cavitation which often causes noise and sloppiness.

Both rebound (18 clicks) and compression (14 clicks) are controlled by a blow-off valve directly on the main piston for the most precise and accurate damping control – not a needle valve with a smaller effective adjustment range before the needle is too far out of the orifice to influence flow. And the best part – both settings are adjustable on one very clever knob, within easy reach under your hood or in your trunk. No more dragging a jack to pit lane, laying on the ground in your nice clothes or driving suit, or brake rotor brands on the arm!

2-Way Custom Double Adjustable - The MCS 2-Way damper is far from basic. This damper set features a full 14 clicks of compression adjustment and 18 clicks of rebound adjustment over a wide range, specific to each vehicle’s specific requirements. Remote reservoirs give superior fluid temperature control and are available (or standard depending on application) with quick-release hydraulic lines for easy installation.

This damper set is beyond the more common coil-over systems on the market. MCS 2-Ways are dependable, repeatable, and easy to work with. Valving covers a wide range of spring rates and eliminates the need to constantly revalve every time you want to increase or decrease your spring rate. Reservoir pressure can be adjusted between 100 – 275 PSI to help support the platform in fast cornering or generate more weight transfer / traction at low velocity.

Dampers are more than just number of adjustments and just click count – the shape of the resulting curves is specifically engineered to give your car the most grip through the range of surface conditions and dynamic inputs your vehicle experiences. 2-Way dampers are available for many popular sports cars.

3-Way Triple Adjustable - The MCS 3-Way damper is the ultimate damper for professional racers or anyone that demands ultimate performance. The 3-Way remote reservoir canister has been designed to give the engineer, suspension tuner, or driver more control over the vehicle platform by adding adjustment to the low-speed compression damping performance.

This damper set features a full 14 clicks of high-speed compression, 5 clicks low-speed compression, and 18 clicks of rebound adjustment. The low-speed bump adjuster is located on top of the high-speed adjuster and can be adjusted independently. The reservoir pressure can be adjusted between 100 – 275 PSI to help support the platform in fast cornering or generate more weight transfer / traction at low velocity.

The low-speed compression adjuster is very helpful to better control both body roll at turn-in, as well as pitch and squat movements. Reducing low-speed compression damping can help to quickly increase traction on bumpy tracks. Precise control of the chassis platform is a tremendous tuning advantage.

All damper shafts are induction hardened and chrome plated - the material used is C45 or CrMo for strut applications. The canister pressure can be varied between 6-20 bar (100-350 PSI) to help support the car in high speed cornering with soft springs.The reservoir is connected to the damper by a high pressure hose and is equipped with swivel banjo’s to easy for easy installation of the canisters in the car regardless of the position.

Damper sets include spring hardware but springs, camber plates, and rear mounts must be ordered separately. E9X M3 are eye to eye rear and have quick disconnects on the front only. The strut adaptor sleeve required for E8X 1M and E9X M3 applications is NOT included. These dampers are not typically on the shelf, so please allow build time of 3-4 weeks (or more, season dependant).
