Description:
ACDelco Gold (Professional) Premium Gas Charged Shocks are a high quality alternative to Original Equipment (OE) parts. These mounts attach your ACDelco Struts to the vehicle, while acting as an insulator. They 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. For additional ride support, ACDelco Gold Premium Gas Charged Shocks utilize premium Road Response Valving Technology that automatically adjusts to provide comfort and extra control by responding to changing road conditions during normal driving situations, and improved handling under extreme road conditions. ACDelco Gold (Professional) parts are manufactured to meet your expectations for fit, form, and function, making them a smart choice for General Motors vehicles, as well as most makes and models, including special applications. These high-quality parts are backed by General Motors. Some ACDelco Gold parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco Professional. ⚠ WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm - https://www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
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
- Manufactured to meet specifications for fit, form, and function for General Motors vehicles as well as most makes and models
- O-ring hydraulic piston seal resulting in minimized piston blow-by and consistent control
- Premium aftermarket replacement part
- Some ACDelco Gold parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco Professional
- Valve design performance that is independent of ride height reduces the potentially negative effects of vehicle loads or weak spring conditions

- To inspect your shocks and struts to gauge wear, check for:
- 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:
