Shock SZ/SL 9in Comp 14 Reb 2

The Shock SZ/SL 9-inch Compensator with 14-inch Rebound 2 is a monotube shock absorber engineered for demanding suspension applications requiring consistent damping and controlled rebound characteristics. Built with a sealed monotube design and zinc-plated steel construction, this shock delivers the durability and corrosion resistance necessary for extended field deployment or high-use environments where moisture exposure and salt spray accelerate wear on standard components.

Measuring 9 inches in compressed length and extending to approximately 23.52 inches, this shock absorber is designed with a 1.81-inch outer diameter and tuned with the C14-R2 valve architecture for precise pressure balancing. The compensator chamber allows for fluid volume management across the stroke, while the rebound circuit maintains controlled return speed—critical for applications where uncontrolled extension can cause oscillation, noise, or loss of vehicle control. The zinc-plated finish protects against rust and oxidation in corrosive environments, extending service life compared to bare steel alternatives.

This shock suits suspension systems in off-road vehicles, recovery equipment, and heavy-duty platforms where tuned damping performance matters. The 14-inch rebound stroke with two-stage valving handles rapid spring extension while minimizing the bottoming-out risk common in undersprung or heavily loaded applications. Field users value the monotube architecture for its consistent performance across temperature ranges and the sealed design for its maintenance-free operation. Part number 33-321981 ensures OEM compatibility verification before installation.
