It uses 10-stage all-coil spring valving, a pressurized piston ring, and a multi-lip seal to improve ride control, reduce fade, and extend service life. This shock is commonly replaced when the original unit leaks, becomes weak, or causes excessive bouncing, and it fits many Freightliner Custom Chassis (XC) and other RV chassis from the early 2000s.
