Product Details
Description
The SX8000 Nitro Gas Shock (Single) from Tuff Country is built for lifted trucks, SUVs, and Jeeps that demand a balanced ride between everyday driving and off-road capability. It delivers confident handling, improved response, and reliable damping across pavement and trails.
- Extended length: 26.5" extended length to work with suspension lifts while preserving travel and control.
- Collapsed length: 16" collapsed length for proper mounting within factory or lifted configurations.
- Nitro gas charged: nitrogen gas helps minimize fade during repeated or heavy use, delivering consistent performance.
- Twin-tube design: durable construction that maintains stable damping through heat cycles and demanding terrain.
- 5/8" piston rod: strong, smooth actuation for reliable damping under load and during acceleration or braking.
- Polyurethane bushings: long-lasting resistance to wear with reduced noise and drivetrain play.
- Warranty: backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty for extra peace of mind.
- Installation note: shock boots are not included with this shock.
Whether you’re navigating rough back roads, towing a trailer, or simply enjoying a smoother daily drive, the SX8000 delivers a confident, controlled ride. Its nitrogen-charged, twin-tube design reduces fading on long drives and maintains predictable handling when the road gets uneven. This shock is designed to be installed in pairs for most applications, pairing with lifted setups to maintain balanced front-to-rear damping and steady handling across varied terrains.
