Detailed Product Description

The PRT Performance Ride Shock Absorber 930288 features a compressed length of 8.78 inches and an extended length of 12.72 inches, providing a travel length and shock stroke of 3.94 inches. This ensures adequate suspension movement for smooth ride quality. The shock is gas charged, which helps reduce foaming and maintains consistent damping under various driving conditions.

A metal dust shield protects the shock shaft from debris and corrosion, enhancing durability. The shock absorber body diameter measures 1.77 inches, balancing strength and weight.

Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the PRT Shock Absorber 930288, ensure the loop mounts align correctly with the vehicle’s suspension points. Measure from the center of the loop on both the rod end and body end to confirm fitment. Since this shock is non-adjustable, no tuning is required post-installation. The included metal dust shield should be inspected for proper positioning to protect the shock shaft. Coil over springs are not included, so verify if your application requires separate spring components.
