Designed for a wide range of 4WD trucks and SUVs, the SX6000 shock brings a smoother, more controlled ride whether you’re navigating highway curves or blazing over uneven off-road trails. Its longer extended length helps maintain stability and maintaining wheel travel when paired with a lift kit. If you’re upgrading your suspension to improve handling and comfort on rugged terrain, this shock absorber offers a practical, well-engineered solution that complements a variety of popular platforms—including Dodge Dakota and Durango, Ford F-150, and Toyota 4Runner/Truck models—without introducing unnecessary complexity to installation or maintenance.
