The SX6000 Hydraulic Shock from Tuff Country is a single, stem-to-loop shock absorber engineered for lifted trucks that demand confident on- and off-road damping. Designed to pair with common lift configurations, it delivers a smooth, controlled ride with dependable handling.
- Single hydraulic shock: A dedicated, compact unit designed for straightforward installation and reliable damping in lifted suspensions.
- Stem-to-Loop mounting: Easy, secure attachment with a proven stem-to-loop mounting setup for sturdy, long-lasting performance.
- Cellular gas, twin-tube design: Combines a twin-tube construction with cellular gas assist for smooth action and consistent resistance across a range of speeds and terrains.
- Collapsed / Extended length: 18 1/2" collapsed (shortened) and 31" extended (longer travel) to accommodate lifted rear suspensions.
- 5/8" piston rod: Robust rod diameter delivers improved stiffness and durability under load, reducing flex and wear.
- Multi-stage valving: Calibrated damping that adapts to varying road conditions, providing balanced control during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
- Poly bushings: Durable bushings reduce vibration transmission and contribute to a smoother ride over rough surfaces.
- Boots not included: Shock boots are not included with this shock, so plan accordingly for mud and debris protection.
- Installation note: Fits Tuff Country 3" lift kits that lift the rear end 1", making it a practical choice for popular lifted applications.
- Warranty: Backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty for long-term peace of mind.
- Quantity: Sold individually; most applications require 2 shocks for complete front-to-rear installation.
The SX6000 is ideal for drivers upgrading to a lifted setup who want predictable handling, stable highway manners, and capable off-road performance. With its twin-tube design, sturdy 5/8" piston rod, and multi-stage valving, it delivers consistent damping across a variety of loads and conditions. The stem-to-loop configuration and poly bushings contribute to a solid, responsive feel behind the wheel, while the extended length helps maintain sensible ride height with rear lift. This shock pairs well with RAM, Ford, Toyota, and other 4WD pickups and SUVs that use mid- to high-range lift kits, providing a reliable upgrade path that stands up to daily driving and weekend trail adventures alike.
