Product Details

The Skyjacker Nitro shock absorber is listed at 8 inches and made for the GMC, Chevrolet and Ford models listed in the fitment table. Its Nitro shock uses velocity-sensitive valving to control how fast the springs compress and rebound.

Skyjacker® Suspensions offers you a high quality shock absorber with true velocity sensitive valving. Shock absorbers, or spring dampers as it is called everywhere else except in the U.S., control the rate at which suspension springs compress and rebound. As the shock is pushed together, this is called bump or compression. As the shock expands, this is called rebound or extension. Absorbing the 'shock' of bumps and suspension loading is actually performed by the springs in the suspension. The shock's real job is controlling the energy stored in the springs.
