Product Description

The Skyjacker B8571 Black MAX Shock Absorber is purpose-built for classic Chevrolet and GMC 4WD trucks and SUVs running 6 to 8 inches of front lift. Spanning a wide range of K-series pickups, Blazers, Jimmys, and Suburbans from 1967 through 1991, this shock pairs foam-cell twin-tube technology with vehicle-specific valving to deliver controlled, comfortable damping whether you're on the trail or the highway. The foam-cell insert actively compensates for oil expansion under heat, preventing fade and maintaining consistent performance throughout the operating range.

Installation is straightforward using factory mounting hardware - all necessary washers, bushings, and nuts are included, and the eyelet/sleeve mounts bolt up to your existing shock towers without modification. The chrome-plated shaft and protective black boot guard against abrasion and the elements, while the increased fluid capacity keeps things running cool under extended off-road stress. Backed by Skyjacker's Lifetime Warranty, the B8571 is a solid, value-driven upgrade for lifted GM truck owners who need a dependable front shock rated for serious lift heights.
