Construction & Design:

Fabtech Performance Shocks are built with premium materials and precision engineering to withstand the rigors of off-road and heavy-duty use. The twin tube hydraulic design ensures smooth compression and rebound, while the 9-stage valving system finely tunes the shock’s response to varying terrain and driving conditions. The hardened chrome piston rod resists wear and corrosion, extending the service life of the shock absorber.

The inclusion of a closed cell foam insert minimizes shock fade, maintaining consistent dampening even during prolonged high-speed driving. Polyurethane bushings provide a durable, low-maintenance interface that reduces vibration and noise, enhancing overall ride comfort.
