Overview:

The Fabtech Stealth Front Shock Absorber is engineered to deliver a superior ride quality for trucks and SUVs equipped with oversized tires. Designed specifically for the Dodge Ram 1500 (1994–2001) and Jeep Wrangler (2007–2015), this monotube shock absorber combines durability, performance, and style in an all-black finish. It is ideal for enthusiasts seeking reliable suspension upgrades that enhance vehicle control and comfort without breaking the bank.

Featuring vehicle-specific valving and a high-flow piston, the Stealth shock absorber ensures consistent damping performance tailored to the demands of lifted or heavy-duty applications. Whether navigating rough trails or cruising on the highway, drivers will appreciate the improved handling and reduced harshness this shock provides.

Key Features:

Fabtech’s Stealth shock absorbers incorporate advanced technology and thoughtful design elements to optimize ride quality and longevity. Key features include:

• All-black monotube design with a distinctive raised metal nameplate for easy identification
• 46mm diameter high-flow piston that promotes smooth damping and superior ride comfort
• Vehicle-specific valving engineered to accommodate oversized tires and lifted suspensions
• 14mm Nitrocarburized piston rods offering enhanced durability and corrosion resistance compared to traditional chrome rods
• Matte black finish on piston rods for a complete blackout aesthetic
• Full floating piston design that separates gas from oil to prevent foaming and maintain consistent performance
• 50mm outer diameter seamless steel body for increased strength and resistance to damage
• Designed to resist rock chips and rust, extending service life in off-road conditions

Construction & Design:

The Fabtech Stealth shock absorbers are built with premium materials and precision engineering. The 50mm seamless steel body provides a robust housing that withstands the rigors of off-road driving and heavy loads. The Nitrocarburized piston rods are treated to resist corrosion and physical damage, ensuring long-lasting performance even in harsh environments.

The monotube design allows for better heat dissipation compared to twin-tube shocks, reducing fade during extended use. The full floating piston separates the nitrogen gas from the hydraulic oil, preventing aeration and maintaining consistent damping characteristics throughout the shock’s stroke.
