Skyjacker 1988-2006 GM 1500 2WD Black Max 8500 Shock Absorber w/ Black Boot

The foam-cell insert in this Skyjacker Black Max 8500 shock absorber compresses to manage fluid expansion when the shock heats up. This advanced foam-cell technology helps maintain consistent performance across a wide range of operating temperatures, and it also means you can mount the shock in any direction because it eliminates air inside. This shock absorber is built for a range of GM 1500 2WD trucks from 1988 to 2006, including popular models like the Chevrolet C1500 and GMC Sierra 1500.

Beyond the foam-cell design, these shocks feature twin-tube construction for increased fluid capacity, which further aids in heat dissipation. The sintered iron piston and chrome-plated shaft are durable components, and the arc-welded end mounts are solid, ensuring this shock absorber stays put. The vehicle-specific multi-stage valving is tuned to provide a good balance of control and comfort for daily driving and light off-road use.
