Product Details
Description

The SX8000 front shock is designed to deliver fade-free performance through varying terrain. The nitrogen-charged internals maintain consistent damping during repetitive impacts, while the twin-tube layout helps dissipate heat for reliable feel during long highway drives and rugged off-road sessions. Polyurethane bushings contribute to quieter operation and longer service life, helping your Wrangler maintain precise steering and stability as you navigate washboard roads or rocky trails. With an extended length that suits 0" lift setups, these shocks preserve essential wheel travel for improved traction and control. For best results, pair two SX8000 shocks on the front with the appropriate suspension components, and rely on the included limited lifetime warranty for continued peace of mind.
