Gabriel

3 way Auto Parts offers the best brands in Zimbabwe for motor vehicle spare parts, accessories, service parts and engine parts.

Overview

Gabriel® invented the first automotive shock absorber in 1907, followed by the first hydraulic, adjustable, and air adjustable shock absorbers. Gabriel grew in importance as transportation and manufacturing progressed over the twentieth century.

We’re still the same inventive, independent American company today, producing high-performance shocks and struts for over 96% of North American automobiles. Gabriel is one of our country’s most dependable aftermarket and OEM manufacturers for light- and heavy-duty cars, as well as items you might not expect, such as industrial washing machines and car washes.

Gabriel, of course, has progressed in tandem with the family car and modern transportation.

We’re continually expanding and increasing our product line and coverage, all while striving to improve on our already excellent quality, testing, and validation standards. We’ve enlarged our ReadyMount® strut assembly line, and we’re still Fit-and-Ride-testing every new light vehicle design – both in the vehicle application for which it was designed and on U.S. roads. Of course, that can only happen once we’ve created and designed the product to Gabriel’s exacting tolerances and precision standards.

We’re also one of the few firms that still includes super-finished chromed piston rods as standard equipment on all of our shocks and struts, not just the “luxury” ones.

Imported brands are rarely able to claim that they have done these crucial measures. But for us, it’s just another chapter in a story of small company owners, service technicians, shopkeepers, and do-it-yourselfers all around North America who share an independent spirit. It’s also the proper thing to do, and it assures that every part we create meets the high standards of quality and performance you’d expect from the Original Gabriel, the business that pioneered the automobile shock absorber industry.
