Key Features:
Fabtech’s Stealth Front Shock Absorber incorporates several advanced features designed to improve durability, ride quality, and corrosion resistance:
- 46mm diameter high-flow piston for superior damping and smooth ride characteristics
- Vehicle-specific valving optimized for oversized tires and heavy-duty use
- 14mm Nitrocarburized piston rods that resist rock chips and rust, outperforming traditional chromed rods
- Matte black Nitrocarb finish on piston rods for a complete blackout aesthetic
- Full floating piston design that separates gas from oil to reduce shock fade and maintain consistent performance
- 50mm outer diameter seamless steel body for enhanced strength and longevity
- Identifiable raised metal nameplate as a mark of quality and authenticity
- All-black finish for a stealthy, rugged appearance
Construction & Design:
The Stealth shock absorber is constructed with a seamless steel body measuring 50mm in diameter, providing robust structural integrity to withstand demanding off-road and towing conditions. The 14mm Nitrocarburized piston rods offer superior hardness and corrosion resistance compared to conventional chrome rods, ensuring long-lasting durability even in harsh environments. This advanced surface treatment also protects against rock chips and rust, a common cause of premature shock failure.
Fabtech’s full floating piston design effectively separates the nitrogen gas from the hydraulic oil, preventing aeration and shock fade during extended use. This engineering approach maintains consistent damping performance, delivering a smooth and controlled ride regardless of terrain or load.
