Description:
ACDelco Professional Premium Gas Charged Shocks are twin-tube passive replacement shocks for passenger cars, vans, SUVs, and light trucks. These shocks have a high pressure nitrogen gas charge along with chrome finished piston rods and drawn over mandrel (DOM) pressure cylinders.

Features and Benefits:
- A hardened, chromed piston rod with micro cracks provides an ultra-smooth, self-lubricating, corrosion- and scratch-resistant surface, helping increase seal life
- Drawn over mandrel (DOM) pressure cylinder for high quality sealing properties and reduced internal friction to assist with longer product life
- Full perimeter, multi-lip, piston rod seal is permanently lubricated and helps keep dirt and contaminates from reaching the interior of the rod
- Gas charged for reduced fluid aeration, which can result in better response, less foaming, and more consistent control than non-gas charged shocks
- Infinitely variable damping for on-demand control on all road conditions
- O-ring hydraulic piston seal resulting in minimized piston blow-by and consistent control
- Valve design performance that is independent of ride height reduces the potentially negative effects of vehicle loads or weak spring conditions
- Your vehicle's shocks and struts slowly deteriorate over time, though this wear is normally difficult to detect. To maximize your vehicle's ride comfort and safety, it is recommended to replace your vehicle's shocks and struts every 50,000 miles. Worn shocks and struts can also cause additional wear to other vehicle components. Affected components include:
- – Ball joints
- – Brakes
- – Tie rods
- – Tires
- To inspect your shocks and struts to gauge wear, check for:
- – Broken mounts, worn or missing bushings.
- – Broken, damaged, or missing mounting hardware.
- – Cupped tire wear.
- – Damaged strut body springs, seats, and bushings.
- – Defective strut bearing or missing plate.
- – Leaking oil or wetness along the body of the shock or strut.
- – Severely dented reservoir tube, bent or scratched piston rod.
