Fabtech Performance Front Shock Absorber
1993–1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee / 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler
FTS7170
Overview:
The Fabtech Performance Front Shock Absorber is engineered specifically for Jeep Grand Cherokee models from 1993 to 1998 and Jeep Wrangler models from 1997 to 2006. Designed to complement Fabtech suspension lift kits, these shocks deliver superior ride control and enhanced handling on and off the road. Ideal for Jeep enthusiasts seeking improved dampening performance, these shocks reduce shock fade at high speeds and provide a smoother, more controlled driving experience over rough terrain.
Built to withstand the rigors of off-road driving, the Fabtech Performance Shock Absorber offers a balance of comfort and durability, making it an excellent upgrade for lifted Jeeps requiring reliable suspension components that maintain factory-level ride quality.
Key Features:
Fabtech Performance Shocks incorporate advanced technology to optimize suspension performance and vehicle control. Key features include:
- High velocity 9-stage valving for precise and consistent dampening
- Closed cell foam insert to minimize shock fade during high-speed operation
- 9/16 inch hardened chrome piston rod for enhanced strength and corrosion resistance
- Twin tube hydraulic construction for smooth and reliable shock absorption
- Polyurethane bushings that provide durability and reduce noise
- Designed specifically to work with Fabtech lift kits for optimal compatibility
- Extended length of 22.82 inches and collapsed length of 13.62 inches with a 9.20 inch stroke
- 1 3/8 inch outer diameter piston for robust performance
Construction & Design:
Fabtech Performance Shocks are constructed with high-quality materials to ensure longevity and consistent performance. The twin tube hydraulic design allows for efficient fluid flow and heat dissipation, reducing the risk of shock fade during demanding driving conditions. The hardened chrome piston rod resists wear and corrosion, extending the life of the shock absorber. Additionally, the closed cell foam insert acts as a cushion to maintain dampening efficiency even under high-speed or heavy load scenarios.
Polyurethane bushings are used to provide a firm yet flexible mounting point, reducing vibration and noise while enhancing durability compared to traditional rubber bushings. This thoughtful engineering ensures the shocks maintain their performance characteristics over extended use.
Installation & Fitment:
These front shock absorbers are designed for direct fitment on Jeep Grand Cherokee models from 1993 to 1998 and Jeep Wrangler models from 1997 to 2006. Installation is straightforward when paired with Fabtech lift kits, requiring no major modifications. The shocks come ready to install with all necessary bushings included, making them a convenient upgrade for enthusiasts looking to improve their vehicle’s suspension performance.
Proper installation will restore or enhance ride quality and handling characteristics, especially on lifted vehicles where factory shocks may no longer provide adequate dampening.
What's Included:
- One Fabtech Performance Front Shock Absorber (driver or passenger side)
- Polyurethane bushings pre-installed
- Installation hardware (if applicable)
- Product instructions and specifications
Ideal For:
This shock absorber is ideal for Jeep owners who have installed or plan to install Fabtech suspension lift kits on their 1993–1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee or 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler.

What does the Available to Promise date mean?
ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
