Product Description

The Skyjacker N8029 Nitro 8000 rear shock absorber is engineered to enhance the rear suspension performance of several classic and modern 4WD trucks and SUVs. Featuring a pressure-charged nitrogen design and advanced velocity-sensitive valving, this shock helps minimize shock fade and provides smoother damping over varying road and trail conditions. Its twin-tube construction, chromed hardened piston rod, and protective red boot work together to improve durability and handling, while the included bushings aid in secure mounting for reliable performance.

With an extended length of approximately 24.94 in and a collapsed length near 14.91 in, the N8029 fits rear suspension locations on **1987-1996 Dodge Dakota 4WD**, **1990-1994 Ford Explorer 4WD/2WD**, **1991-1994 Mazda Navajo 4WD**, and **2006-2010 Hummer H3 4WD** with mild lift ranges (0-2" or 0-1.5" depending on model). Sold individually, this direct bolt-on replacement shock is ideal for drivers upgrading from worn factory units or adding improved ride control without complete suspension overhaul. Always confirm specific vehicle needs before installation.
