The secret to makinggreat shocks?It’s what’s inside.PN 69600Quality and Durability - built into every oneGabriel has been making shocks since 1907 when we invented the first automotive shock absorber.And today, after perfecting shock absorber technology for more than 100 years, we know that it iswhat's on the inside that counts.Pressure Tube - D.O.M. Gabriel’s metal forged D.O.M (Drawn Over Mandrel) processremoves the weld seam and imperfections from the surfaceThis smoother finish surface reduces friction and leads to a longerproduct lifeGabriel’s surface smoothness measures at 3.0*, which indicatesa smoother tube surface. Competitors’ measure as high as 36.0*Smooth D.O.M. innertube surface - no seamChromed and Super-Finished Piston Rod The rod surface is chromed and super-finished to prevent corrosionThe super-finished chrome carries the proper amount of lube tothe seal, providing a consistent wear surface and longer product lifeCompetitors’ rods show corrosion, Gabriel's remain clean**Chromed and super-finished rodDurable Piston Valve Assembly Gabriel’s piston valve assembly design is extremely durableGabriel's O-Ring piston seal adjusts as it wears to maintain a tightseal between the piston and pressure tube. This minimizes leakpaths for a longer product lifeMany competitors' valves don’t use an O-Ring and don’t adjust forwear over timeDurable valve designadjusts for wearDirt Wiper Oil Seal Gabriel’s integrated dirt wiper raises above the oil seal to help keeproad debris, dirt and grit from getting inside the seal and the shockMany competitors' products don’t contain a dirt wiperDirt wiper is similar to OE designs* In Gabriel tests** Both rods went through the same industry standard 96-hr ASTM-B117 salt spray test

G-Force Shock Absorber TechnologyShock absorbertechnologyso advanced, it’smeasured in G-Force. All shocks are built to last.Ours are just built to last longer.All Gabriel Products Feature:Super-Finished Chromed Piston RodProvides superior corrosion resistance,performance and product lifeHigh-Pressure Nitrogen GasQuicker response with reduced fadeLeak-Proof Piston SealStableSteer ValvingSelf-compensates for wear,extending product lifeImproves tire contact with the roadfor safety and controlSintered Iron PistonDurability and maximum shock performanceD.O.M.
