ADS Racing Shocks 2.5" x 8" Stroke Smooth Body Race Shock with Remote Reservoir 90 Deg Hose
$999.95

If you’re serious about off-roading or hitting the race track, let me tell you about the ADS Racing Shocks. These smooth body shocks come from a lineage steeped in desert racing experience, and trust me, that pedigree shows. When the folks at ADS set out to create these dampers, they weren’t just throwing around buzzwords like “performance” and “reliability” – they were living it. They know that in racing, if something can go wrong, it usually will. That’s why they designed these shocks with a laser focus on durability and functionality.

Every part of the ADS Racing Shock has a job to do. Take the screw-in end cap reservoirs, for example. They’re not just there for show; they enhance fluid flow in critical areas, which helps to keep things cool and smooth. Less heat means less harshness, and that’s a game changer when you’re pushing your vehicle to the limits. Plus, these shocks are built with large capacity reservoirs that help manage pressure gain, so you can really feel the traction and control when you’re out there tearing it up.

And let’s talk about strength. The large diameter shafts are designed to withstand the kind of abuse that comes with racing. Whether you’re jumping dunes or navigating rocky trails, these shocks are built to handle it all, time and again. You can count on them to deliver consistent performance, whether you’re on a weekend adventure or a full-on race day.

Here’s the nitty-gritty for those who like to geek out on specs:

  • Adjustable Reservoir: Yep, you can tweak it.
