Abstract
A transportation protection for cable ends on shock absorber struts of motor vehicles, wherein the cable end exits from a hollow piston rod. In order to create protection which protects the cable end from damage during transportation, it is proposed that a cover plate be installed at the end of the shock absorber strut at which the cable end exits from a hollow piston rod, with the cover plate being held on the fasteners of the shock absorber strut in such a way that it takes on a curved shape. This is achieved by making the distance between two opposing fastening points on the cover plate greater than the distance between the corresponding fasteners on the shock absorber strut.
