Description of Gabriel 85088 Fleet Line Shock

Fleet Line shocks are built to match and/or exceed OE specs and quality standards. Features a valving rate compensating for initial truck suspension softening. Piston seal self-compensates for wear, maintains a tight seal between the piston and pressure tube eliminating oil bypass, and increases control capabilities at low velocities. Best-In-class Hydraulic Stop (where required) with better sealing capabilities than competitors' designs, provides 3 to 5 times greater force absorption (in Gabriel benchmark tests). 1′′, 1 3/16′′, 1 3/8′′, 1 5/8′′ bore sizes provide customized suspension for different cab designs and increased comfort. 10-stage valving, a pressurized piston ring, multi-lip piston rod seal and gas cell technology (cab shocks only).

Perfectly Smooth Ride

As my tests showed these shocks provide a perfectly smooth ride even on rough terrain. The suspension feels tight and secure, and I havent noticed any excessive bouncing or sway. The installation process was a bit tricky and required some extra effort, but the end result was well worth it..

Pros
  • Smooth ride, secure suspension
Cons
  • Tricky installation

Poor quality shocks, struts and suspension

I installed them on Sunday. The ride immediately became smooth. A week later it was like I hadn't had any strokes. Both burn out after 2500 km. I have never put this brand on anything I drive.

Pros
  • Normal price
Cons
  • Not bad
