Construction & Design:

The ADX 2.0 shocks feature an impact-extruded, CNC machined monotube body crafted from T6061-T6 aluminum, a material known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and heat dissipation properties. This aluminum construction allows the shock to run cooler than traditional steel-bodied shocks, enhancing durability and performance under demanding conditions.

The remote reservoir design separates the oil and gas chambers, increasing oil capacity and reducing shock fade during extended use. The large bore size and full-displaced valving system provide rapid response to terrain changes, while the Teflon-banded piston minimizes friction for a smooth, controlled ride. The clear anodized finish not only protects against corrosion but also adds a sleek, polished look that complements the rugged style of the Jeep Gladiator.

The remote reservoir setup requires appropriate mounting points, which are compatible with factory locations or common aftermarket suspension kits.
