Skyjacker Nitro N8049 Shock Absorber for Select 1984-2006 Jeep Cherokee and Wrangler

Fits select 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee and 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler (V6-4.0L / L4-2.4L / L4-2.5L).

The Skyjacker Nitro N8049 shock absorber is a high-pressure nitrogen-charged damper engineered to provide consistent suspension control for Jeep Cherokee (XJ) and Wrangler (TJ/LJ) models. By utilizing nitrogen gas, this twin-tube shock reduces oil foaming and prevents cavitation during rapid suspension cycling, ensuring the valving remains effective even during heavy off-road use or high-speed washboard travel. The multi-stage velocity-sensitive valving automatically adjusts to the speed of the piston rod, delivering a compliant ride on the street while maintaining firm control over large obstacles.

Constructed for longevity, the N8049 features a 5/8-inch hardened and double-chrome-plated rod that resists pitting and corrosion. The included red polyurethane bushings offer superior resistance to environmental degradation compared to standard rubber, and the included red dust boot protects the internal seals from trail debris. This shock is a direct-fit replacement designed to bolt into factory mounting points.
