  • Get the best out of your truck or SUV suspension off-road and on with Skyjacker Black MAX 8500 Shocks
  • Full 180° direction mounting thanks to 360° arc-welded end-mounts and heavy-duty compression head
  • Improves tire-to-road contact for safe and smooth driving with StableSteer™ valving
  • Improved fluid capacity augments your heat dissipation for long-lasting durability
  • Interior air is eliminated with foam-cell inserts that balance oil expansion
  • Backed by a 1-Year Limited Warranty

Like a Black Diamond ski course, black is often associated with extremes and top-of-the-line performance. If you tend to take your truck across "Black Diamond"-worthy terrain whether on off-road trails, country roads, or just city potholes, you might be surprised how much you stand to improve upon your stock suspension system. With a sintered iron piston, DOM tubing, orifice control and a sinister Black boot, Skyjacker Black MAX 8500 Shocks will show you what your rig is really capable of.

Your Skyjacker Black MAX 8500 Shocks have state-of-the-art foam cells to thank for their superior ride-feel. These cells mitigate the differences in compression caused by oil expansion, and eliminate air in the process. The end mounts are 360-degree arc-welded for a full 180-degrees of directional mounting for your make and model of truck or SUV. StableSteer™ valving ensures your tires keep maximum contact with the road – this provides a smoother ride-feel on city streets, and a safer experience on the off-road trails.

Designed for long-lasting performance, these shocks look great in a wicked Black boot. Backed by a 1-Year Limited Warranty.

I have 2 late 1990's Tacoma trucks and these socks are on the back of both! They look good in plain black and have no stickers unless you choose to put them on. They perform extremely well offroad. I've advised them like crazy on several hunting trips and had them airborne several times. Zero complaints. They respond like a quality offroad shock should and are better priced than most lift shocks out there.

Parts and bushing didn’t work with out shaving them down I really wish I just would have bought a set of rough country shocks like my old truck. Very unsatisfied with parts, customer service was great though.

Nice quality shocks I just wish the name came printed on the shocks and they weren't stickers. The stickers are pealing off already. But a nice shock for the price.
