How does the foam-cell technology work?

The foam-cell insert inside the shock compresses when the shock fluid heats up and expands. This process helps maintain consistent shock performance by managing fluid expansion and preventing air from entering the system.

Can I mount this shock absorber at any angle?

Yes, the foam-cell technology eliminates air inside the shock, which allows it to be mounted in any direction without affecting its performance.

What makes the end mounts durable?

The end mounts on this shock absorber are constructed with 360-degree arc welds. This method creates a strong, solid connection that resists stress and contributes to the overall longevity of the shock.

About this part

Product Details

When you're looking to replace worn-out shocks on your classic Ford truck or Jeep Wrangler, the Skyjacker Black Max shock absorber is a solid option. This shock is built with a twin-tube construction and features increased fluid capacity, which helps with heat dissipation. That means it can handle the demands of the road or trail without losing performance.

What sets this shock apart is its advanced foam-cell technology. When the shock heats up under heavy use, this foam-cell insert compresses to manage the oil expansion. This keeps the shock performing consistently, no matter the temperature. Plus, because the foam-cell design eliminates air inside the shock, you can mount it in any direction, making installation more flexible. The arc-welded end mounts add to its durability, and the sintered iron piston and chrome-plated shaft are built to last.

This shock absorber is designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, including many Ford Bronco, F-100, F-150, F-250, and F-350 models from the 70s and 80s, as well as certain Toyota 4Runner and Pickup models, and Jeep Wranglers. It's a well-built shock that offers good value for its features.
