Important Note:
The entire shock body, including the pivot ball end, is made from aluminum. The shock shaft itself is metal. When you’re working with aluminum-on-aluminum or aluminum-on-metal connectionsโsuch as where the shock rod end threads onto the shaftโit’s strongly recommended to apply a small amount of threadlocker. This helps prevent the threaded connection from loosening due to vibration.
Be sure to add a dab of Loctite (or a similar threadlocking compound) at the connection point between the shock rod end and the shaft. While this step isnโt necessary for plastic components, it is crucial for metal or aluminum parts to ensure long-term reliability.
These shocks DO NOT come preloaded with oil.ย Oil is a preference, and we leave it up to our customers to add the oil / weight of their choice.
