Key Features
- Increased fluid capacity improves heat dissipation during extended or heavy-duty use, and each unit ships with a protective black boot to guard the shaft from debris.
- The increased fluid capacity and multi-stage valving are built to manage the added heat and load generated during towing and hauling.
- Reinstall the wheel if removed, lower the vehicle, and inspect for clearance through full suspension travel.
- A chrome-plated shaft and sintered iron piston resist wear and pitting, while 360 degree arc-welded end mounts and 180 degree directional mounting simplify installation on 1992-1998 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban.
- The Black Max shock line applies that off-road engineering heritage to a twin-tube design built for daily-driven trucks and SUVs that see towing, hauling, and light off-road duty.
- The B8581 is a Skyjacker Black Max twin-tube shock absorber engineered for 1992-1998 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban, using StableSteer multi-stage valving for controlled ride quality on and off road.
