Suspension Tools for Professional Shock Service
Good shock service starts with the right gear. If you work on mountain bikes, motorcycles, ATVs, or cars, you know that cheap or poorly made tools cost you time and money. They also put your work at risk. A bent shaft from a bad clamp or a botched spring job can turn a routine service into an expensive mistake. That is why more shops now look for equipment built to handle real-world demands day after day.
LABA7 Suspension Tools Range
We build shock absorber tools for mechanics who take their work seriously. The lineup covers six main products. Each one solves a specific problem that comes up during damper service.
Universal Shaft Clamp Set
Our universal shaft clamp set for MTB fits 45 different shaft sizes from 6.0 mm to 40.0 mm. The hard-anodized 7075 aluminum construction grips shafts firmly without scratching or damaging coatings.
Hydraulic Spring Removal Tool
Built for safe coil disassembly on MTB, ATV, motorcycle, and automotive dampers. Our hydraulic spring removal tool features five adapter sizes and seven height settings to ensure safe and controlled spring removal.
MTB Shock Tester
Also called a hand shock dyno, this tester checks compression and rebound on rear mountain bike shocks. It comes in Manual and Digital versions with a free set of mounts for the most common shock types.
Bushing Sizing Tool
Our bushing sizing tool addresses front fork bushings that can cause extra friction, even when new. The kit allows you to resize and burnish bushings for a smoother ride.
Runout Measuring Tool
Our runout measuring tool ensures stanchions and shafts are perfectly straight for optimal performance. Works with both shocks and forks.
Stretching and Measuring Tool
The stretching and measuring tool eliminates the guesswork involved in measuring and filling shock absorbers. Two sizes cover shocks from 150 mm up to 1200 mm long.

Precision Engineering for Suspension Service
Shock service is detail work. Small errors add up fast. That is why we put so much effort into how we build our equipment at LABA7.
Take our shaft clamps as an example.
They use 7075 aluminum, the same grade found in aircraft parts. This material stays strong under heavy use but weighs less than steel. CNC machining keeps tolerances tight. The result is a secure grip that does not harm shaft coatings. Many mechanics have ruined expensive shocks with poorly made clamps. We designed ours to avoid that problem.
We also handle design and production in-house.
We design all products in-house and work with trusted manufacturing partners for production. Each batch undergoes quality inspection before assembly at our facility. This process gives us direct oversight of quality while allowing quick response when updates are needed. Feedback from professional mechanics drives continuous improvement in every tool we make.
Quality control happens at multiple stages.
Quality control takes place throughout the process. Our production partners follow strict standards for material selection and machining accuracy. Each batch of components is inspected before final assembly at our facility. We also test finished products under workshop conditions to ensure reliability. This approach helps prevent issues early and keeps downtime to a minimum for our users.
Compatible with All Suspension Types
Most workshops focus on a specific area — mountain bikes, motorcycles, or automotive suspension. Still, cross-compatibility matters when different types of shocks occasionally come through the same shop or service network. Having tools that work across multiple platforms simplifies setup, saves space, and reduces the need for separate equipment.
LABA7 shaft clamps are designed primarily for mountain bike dampers but can also fit certain smaller motorcycle or ATV shock shafts. The set includes inserts for 45 shaft diameters ranging from 6.0 mm to 40.0 mm, giving broad coverage within those limits.
While larger automotive shocks typically require dedicated tools, this range covers most MTB applications and many mid-size dampers used in off-road or performance setups.
Each product also comes with adapters and mounting options.
Whether you work on FOX, RockShox, Öhlins, or other brands, you will find a fitting that matches. This kind of coverage saves time during busy days.
You grab what you need and get to work. No hunting through drawers for the right adapter or rigging up makeshift solutions.
What Makes LABA7 Suspension Tools Different
Three things stand out when you look closely at our approach at LABA7. It comes down to build quality, measurement accuracy, and the knowledge behind each design choice.
Built to Survive Daily Workshop Use
A professional shop puts equipment through hard use every day. Tools get dropped, splashed with oil, and pushed to their limits. We build with this reality in mind. Hard-anodized surfaces resist chemicals and scratches. Laser-cut steel parts hold up under stress.
Our designs also consider the person using them. Ergonomic shapes reduce hand strain during long shifts. Nobody wants tools that wear them out before the day ends. Good gear should make the job easier, not harder.
Precision That Matches Your Standards
High-end dampers work within very tight limits. A small error during service can hurt ride quality or even safety. Our equipment meets the accuracy these jobs demand. The runout measuring tool uses Hiwin linear rails, the same parts found in industrial machines.
Readings stay consistent from one check to the next. You can trust what the gauge tells you. When a customer asks if their fork is still straight after a crash, you can give them a real answer based on solid data.
Made by Engineers with Racing Backgrounds
The LABA7 team has spent time on the track. We know what happens when a damper fails at speed. That experience shows up in how we think about design. Reliability comes first. Controls stay simple so you can work fast under pressure.
Every detail aims at one goal: helping you do better work on every vehicle that comes through your door. Our steering tools and shock service gear reflect what racers and top mechanics actually need. Not what looks good in a catalog, but what performs when it counts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of shocks can I service with LABA7 tools?
You can service MTB, motorcycle, and some ATV or smaller automotive shocks with LABA7 tools.
Are LABA7 suspension tools suitable for home mechanics?
Yes. LABA7 tools are built for professional results and long-term reliability. Even home mechanics appreciate having high-quality equipment that makes every service job easier and more precise.
What materials are used for shock absorber tools?
We select materials best suited for each tool’s purpose. For example, hard-anodized 7075 aluminum provides strength and surface protection for shaft clamps, laser-cut steel ensures frame rigidity, and Hiwin linear rails deliver precision and repeatable measurements.
How does the MTB Shock Tester help with tuning?
It lets you feel how the shock behaves without mounting it on the bike, making it easier to assess damping performance and decide if further tuning or service is needed.
Where can I buy LABA7 shock service tools?
