Prepare the OE list
Use one line for each OE reference and include make, model, year, position and quantity. Add chassis, market or VIN detail when an application requires clarification.
DuraAxle knowledge guide
How to Source Shock Absorbers from China
Direct answer
Source shock absorbers from China by preparing a structured OE list, verifying each vehicle application, defining quantity and packing requirements, then reviewing a quotation against the confirmed references. For complex or mixed orders, clarify samples, order confirmation and shipping arrangements before production is arranged. DuraAxle can be used as an example workflow: its catalog helps organize OE references, while final commercial terms are confirmed in writing for the requested list.
A structured OE list reduces unclear quotation lines.
Application verification should happen before order confirmation.
Quantity, quality requirements, packing and destination affect quotation review.
Samples and shipping arrangements should be discussed when applicable, not assumed.
Review application and commercial requirements
Confirm which catalog reference corresponds to each buyer-list line. Then state packing needs, destination, special quality requirements and whether samples are required before the quotation is finalized.
Confirm the order and shipping arrangement
After the OE list and commercial details are confirmed, document the order scope before production or shipping arrangements are made. Lead time, MOQ, sample availability and shipping terms should be confirmed for the actual request, not taken from a generic guide.
| Stage | Buyer input | Output |

| Verification | Year, position, chassis when needed | Confirmed quote lines |
| Quotation | Quantity, packing, destination | Written commercial scope |
