Built for the Long Haul on Vintage Bronco Trails
The Skyjacker M2055 ADX M2.0 Adventure Series front shock brings modern monotube technology to classic Ford Bronco suspension. Skyjacker M2055 uses an impact extruded CNC machined T6061-T6 aluminum body that dissipates heat far faster than a traditional steel shock, so the M2055 keeps its dampening characteristics consistent through washboard roads, rock crawling, and long highway stretches alike. An internal floating piston separates nitrogen gas from oil inside the M2055, eliminating cavitation and fade that plague lower quality replacement shocks. Whether the Bronco is a weekend trail rig or a daily driver, the M2055 front shock restores confident, controlled ride quality.
