The method and apparatus for controlling shock absorbers is disclosed. The shock absorber comprises a pressure balanced shutter sleeve disposed within the piston rod of the shock absorber. The shutter sleeve has a plurality of flow passages in fluid communication with the lower portion of the working chamber. The shock absorber further comprises an orifice sleeve disposed within the piston rod and being displaceable with respect to the shutter sleeve. The orifice sleeve has a plurality of flow passages in fluid communication with the upper portion of the working chamber. The shock absorber further comprises an actuator for applying torque to the shutter sleeve as well as control means for controlling the application of torque by the actuator.
