Construction & Design:

The ADX 2.0 rear shock is crafted from impact-extruded CNC machined T6061-T6 aluminum, a material known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and superior heat dissipation compared to traditional steel shocks. The aluminum monotube design allows for greater oil volume and improved thermal management, which helps maintain consistent damping performance during extended off-road use or high-speed driving.

The remote reservoir increases the shock’s oil capacity and surface area, reducing heat buildup and preventing fade. This design also provides additional space within the shock body, allowing the large bore piston to react quickly and smoothly to terrain changes. The Teflon-banded piston further enhances the shock’s ability to control unwanted oscillations, delivering a refined ride and improved vehicle stability.

The Skyjacker ADX 2.0 rear shock is designed as a direct fit replacement for most Jeep Gladiator models from 2018 to 2026, including popular trims such as the 80th Anniversary, Altitude, Freedom, High Altitude, Launch Edition, Mojave, Overland, Rubicon, Rubicon X, Sport, Sport S, Texas Trail, Willys, and Willys Sport. Installation requires no major modifications and can typically be completed using standard hand tools. The remote reservoir design provides flexibility in mounting to accommodate factory suspension geometry and aftermarket lift kits.
