Note: Fits overslung axles only - when the axle is below the leaf springs
With both hydraulic oil and pressurized nitrogen gas inside, this shock gives you steady control when you need it most. The oil handles the core damping, while the gas charge stops foaming, keeps performance consistent under load, and boosts durability for tough jobs.

Excellent product w/outstanding price p oint!
All items received as ordered. Have not installed yet.
The product specs. listed on your web site were lacking exact enginering specs. According to the product delivered.
The fact that your product delivered is workable, does not excuse the fact that the web site description was vague at best.
Need extra steel to make your product work, was at the steel store this morning and could have purchased what was needed then.
Now need to make another 100 mile round trip to make the job good.
I ordered two shock kits for a 3500 axle. One kit was complete with the right parts, the other kit had the rite parts except for the plates that go under the springs, the ones in this kit were for a larger axle kit. If I can't have those plates sent I will return the whole kit. I only need the plates that go under the springs. It would be nice to have instructions of some sort with the size of drill bit for the self threaded bolts. I think this kits are made very cheap with no respect for those installing their kits. I will not reccomend them to anyone
Pleased with my purchase, installation was smooth - thanks!
What a difference the trainer road so smoothly it was like it wasn't back there. Shocks and the kit that came with it are phenomenal. It handly much better.
Shocks work great, travel trailer tows much smoother (sent picture after installation)
Ordered this kit and received it in a couple of days. Install was straight forward. First side took about 3 hours due to time spent measuring and laying it out to make sure the shock wouldn't over compress or extend. Second side took about an hour. The U bolts in the photos are not the ones supplied in the kit. These were installed prior with the lowering block. U bolts in the kit are standard length.
The second bottom plate isn't correct. The u bolt don't fit the plate. I need a replacement part. The u bolts need to be longer also. I received this item over a week ago and was able to work on this Saturday and when unboxing the items, I noticed the difference is size of bottom shock plate bolt pattern was wrong. Please send me the correct item and I'll send this defective item back.
Thank you
the four shocks added great stability to my trailer. They help eliminate sway and trailer hopping not to mention shaking the stuffing out of the trailer.
Shocks made a huge difference in the bounce while towing the trailer. Very worthwhile purchase and installation. I printed the installation instructions from your web site because the instructions included were worthless.
My small dumping trailer was bouncing and swaying all over the place. After installing this shock kit, it follows along like a dream. A more than worthwhile investment. Easy to install, great customer service. Thanks!!!
Upper brackets will mot work on trailer
doesnt fit on the frame of my trailer as it is an I beam frame , now i have to get a shop to weld the top shock mounts to the frame , cost more for the welding than i paid for the shocks
Product arrived on time, with free shipping as compared to other vendors who charge more than $100 for shipping. Had to modify/ cut one edge of the upper shock mount to fit my Lippert frame (2018 Grand Design Imagine 2800bh). Straighforward installation, only issue is the kit comes with 8 self- tapping bolts ( need 5 bolts per upper mount). Definitely will order from Etrailer again.
I am only posting this because you asked. I consider this a loss and just move on. My shocks blew out on the railroad tracks in Dodge City Kansas 1000 miles from home. I was on a trip to the west coast from TN. After I had returned home the warranty was over. I bought better shocks. The mount kit was ok, so far. My new shocks cost $83 delivered.
Installed the shock kit at pulled the trailer across Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota to through the Bad Lands all using back roads to see the country. The trailer followed smoothly and kept things inside in place. A great install to really improve the pull and control on back rough roads.
Have a 2016 Jayco Whitehawk Travel trailer. Because of our wonderful roads in Pa., chucking was a big problem with this unit. Has Lippert Wide Stance axels and the shock kit is the only thing available at this time to tame this bucking bronco. I installed them in driveway, 1 set on each axel. Checked the angle of the shocks and they are placed at a 39 degree angle because of the wide stance axels (max angle on shock is 45 degrees). Went on a 150 mile trip and what a difference. It is pleasurable to pull this RV now even when hitting these dips in road at 70MPH. I am pleased dealing with etrailer. Have purchased several items from them and have had wonderful service from them. Keep-up the good work guys and thanks for being a reputable Co. to deal with. Sam
