Fitment Notes

• On 2004-2018 Ford F-150 4WD, the M9560 serves as both a stock-height front/rear replacement and a rear shock for lifted builds running 4.5-8 in. of rear lift.
• Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-350 Super Duty fitment is confirmed through 2014 only. 2015 and newer Super Duty models are not supported by this part number.
• Ford F-150 fitment on this part number ends at 2018. 2019 and newer F-150 models are not supported.
• Ford Bronco II fitment covers 4WD only from 1984-1990. The 2WD Bronco II variant is not confirmed for this part number.
• Ford Excursion fitment is confirmed for 2000-2004 (4WD only). The 2005 Excursion is not listed under M9560.
• GMC K15/K1500 Suburban fitment extends through 1973; note this is one year beyond the 1972 cutoff of the K15/K1500 Pickup and K25/K2500 Suburban lines.
• Toyota Land Cruiser fitment covers 1967-1984 (4WD only), spanning the FJ40, FJ55, and early FJ60 generations.
• Toyota T100 fitment covers 1993-1998 (4WD only) - the full production run of the T100 in the US market.
• Mazda B-Series fitment (B2300, B3000, B4000) covers 4WD only. These trucks share platform lineage with the Ford Ranger.
• Upper and lower mounting style: Eyelet/Sleeve (ES) on both ends.
• Sold individually - two shocks required per axle for a complete front or rear replacement.

Features

• Monotube single-tube construction uses an internal floating piston (IFP) to keep hydraulic oil and 200 PSI nitrogen gas completely separated, eliminating the aeration and fade that affect twin-tube shocks under hard use.
• High-pressure 200 PSI nitrogen gas charge combined with the IFP delivers the fastest damping response in the M95 lineup, reacting to terrain inputs in real time across the wide range of platforms this shock supports.
• Extended 29.83 in. length accommodates stock-height suspension geometry on classic and vintage trucks as well as rear-lifted configurations on the 2004-2018 Ford F-150 and comparable platforms.
• Large 46mm bore body provides greater hydraulic fluid volume for consistent damping across the 12.53 in. stroke - critical on heavy-duty trucks and SUVs that carry loads and tow regularly.
• Internal bump stop protects the shock body and connected suspension hardware from severe compression impacts during off-road use or rough-road driving with loaded payloads.
• 180-degree directional mounting allows the shock to be oriented in either direction during installation, providing the flexibility needed to work around the varied frame and axle geometries across this shock's broad application list.
• Chrome piston rod resists corrosion and surface wear, maintaining a precise oil seal through years of exposure to dirt, water, and weather.
• Velocity-sensitive valving automatically adjusts damping resistance based on the speed of suspension movement, balancing highway comfort with firm control on rough terrain or under heavy load.
• No-fade, no-lag design maintains consistent damping output through extended off-road use, repeated load cycles, and high-speed driving where heat buildup is greatest.
• Backed by Skyjacker's limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship for the original vehicle purchaser.

Product Description

The Skyjacker M9560 is one of the most versatile shocks in the M95 Monotube lineup, covering stock-height front and rear applications across a wide range of 4WD trucks and SUVs spanning six decades - from classic 1967 GM K-Series pickups and vintage Ford Broncos through the modern 2004-2018 Ford F-150, 2004 Excursion, and 2014 Super Duty. Its 29.83 in. extended length and 12.53 in. travel are engineered for the suspension geometry of these platforms at stock ride height, and on the 2004-2018 F-150 4WD specifically, the M9560 also doubles as a rear shock for lifted builds running 4.5-8 in. of rear lift - making it a dual-purpose option for F-150 owners who are building up or replacing worn shocks on an already-lifted truck.

Built on Skyjacker's monotube IFP architecture, the M9560 uses a floating internal piston to permanently separate the hydraulic oil from the 200 PSI nitrogen gas charge. This prevents aeration at any operating temperature and eliminates the fade that twin-tube shocks exhibit after sustained hard use. The 46mm bore body carries enough fluid volume to deliver consistent damping force throughout the full stroke range - which matters significantly on the heavier platforms in this application list, including the F-250 Super Duty, F-350 Super Duty, Excursion, and full-size classic GM trucks, where loads and road inputs are considerably more severe than on a passenger car. Velocity-sensitive valving modulates the damping response automatically, so the shock is comfortable on pavement and controlled on dirt without any manual adjustment.

Whether you're replacing worn shocks on a classic Ford Bronco, refreshing a Toyota T100 or Land Cruiser, or upgrading a late-model F-150 4WD for lifted street and trail use, the M9560 provides a direct-fit, performance-grade replacement using the factory mounting hardware. Both upper and lower mounts are eyelet/sleeve style. Sold individually - two are required for a complete axle replacement. Skyjacker backs the M9560 with a limited lifetime warranty for the original vehicle owner.
