Abstract
A door shock absorber is disclosed. The door shock absorber is to be typically used with dump bodies with doors that frequently enter into contact with the rear external structure of the dump body. The shock absorber comprises a spring and an actuator supporting the spring for absorption of any impact between the door and the rear dump body structure or any other type of base structure. The spring retractably traverses a casing between a deployed position and a retracted position. The actuator actuates the spring between the deployed position, the retracted position, and at least one intermediate position between the deployed position and the retracted position.
