About the PRT Shock Absorber Product Line

The PRT Shock Absorber line focuses on delivering dependable suspension components engineered for consistent ride quality and durability. This product line emphasizes gas-charged technology and robust construction, including metal dust shields, to protect internal components from debris and extend service life.

Detailed Product Description

This PRT Performance Ride shock absorber offers a compressed length of 16.34 inches and an extended length of 27.48 inches, providing a travel length of 11.14 inches. The gas-charged design enhances damping performance by reducing fade and improving responsiveness over varying road conditions. Both the upper and lower mounts utilize loop ends, measured from the center of the loop for accurate fitment. The 1.77-inch body diameter balances strength and weight, while the metal dust shield protects the piston rod from dirt and debris, helping maintain smooth operation. This shock absorber is non-adjustable and does not include coil over springs or a protective boot, making it suitable for applications where these components are not required.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed

• Restoring suspension performance on vehicles with worn or leaking shocks
• Reducing excessive body roll and improving handling stability
• Minimizing harshness and vibration from rough road surfaces
• Replacing damaged or corroded shock absorbers with loop mounts
• Enhancing ride comfort and control in daily driving conditions

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the vehicle is safely supported before removing the old shock absorber. Measure the existing shock absorber to confirm compatibility with the 16.34-inch compressed and 27.48-inch extended lengths of part number 193844. Since this shock uses loop mounts on both ends, verify that the mounting points match the loop style and center-of-loop measurement. No adjustment is necessary after installation. Check for proper clearance around the shock and dust shield to avoid interference during suspension travel.
