Not Worth the Money

My analysis of this product showed that it did not effectively absorb shock and vibration as advertised. While it may work on lighter machines, it did not hold up to the demands of heavier industrial equipment.The only pro was the ease of installation. Unfortunately, this product was a waste of money and did not deliver the expected results. Industrial and Scientific users should look for other options..

Pros
  • Provides a smooth ride on rough terrain
Cons
  • Can lose effectiveness over time with frequent use

Different part number, same part.

These were unused, came with part 7068 in place of 7078 and included stabilizer bar mounting bolts. Called Skyjacker and they said it was the same part and that it was a shock. It's not like any shock I've used before. It stays where you pull the plunger. This must be done for the Skyjacker as for all Hydros. I HAVE NOT USED THESE so I can't tell you how good or bad they are. I just wanted to give you the part number. I recommend calling Skyjacker or a certified dealer first to ensure you are…

Pros
  • Transmission elements
Cons
  • Slightly torn
