TOKICO, has been manufacturing shock absorbers, brake parts, and other hydraulics for over 50 years. Tokico has been and continues to be a major original equipment supplier to a variety of auto manufacturers. Responding to auto manufacturers' demands for a shock that could provide both good stability and good ride quality, TOKICO developed the twin-tube low-pressure gas shock absorber. TOKICO began working on this technology in the mid 1970's. Since then much of that technology has been adopted world-wide.

The first U.S. built vehicle using twin-lube low-pressure gas shock absorbers was the 1982 Lincoln Continental. Those shocks and struts were designed and supplied by TOKICO. A long time leader in electronic shock absorbers and suspension products
TOKICO, has three locations in the United States. In Berea, KY, TOKICO has a factory which produces original equipment parts (OEM) for auto manufacturers. The office for original equipment sales and engineering is located in Allen Park, MI.

TOKICO aftermarket sales and inventory are located in Rancho Dominguez, CA. Both shock absorbers and brake hydraulics are sold from this location.
