An adjustable damper 10 having a main cylinder 100 split into two chambers 112, 114 by a main piston 200. A piston rod 300 extends from the piston 200 to a second end 14. Each chamber 112, 114 has a corresponding flow port 124, 126 controlling flows into respective fluid circuits 1000, 2000. The ports 124, 126 may be opened to enable fluid flow into and out of the chambers 112, 114, adjusting the damper length L. The piston rod 300 may be hollow, forming a piston rod cylinder 310. The piston rod cylinder 310 may have a piston rod piston 302 dividing the piston rod cylinder 310 into two chambers 312, 314, the first piston rod chamber 312 may be in fluid communication with the first main chamber 112. The second main chamber 114 may have an accumulator 500 with an accumulator piston 502 dividing it into two accumulator chambers 512, 514, the first accumulator chamber 512 being in fluid communication with the second main chamber 114.
