Description

RideTech ShockWave 8000 air shocks feature tapered sleeve air spring bellows. This allows for a softer spring rate, longer travel, and a lower load capacity that is more appropriate for a rear installation. They are designed for rear installations on a solid rear axle where the total rear vehicle weight is 1,500-2,400 lbs. Improve handling and ride quality with these RideTech ShockWave 8000 air shocks.

Product Overview
