Customer Q&A - Gabriel 49304


looking for a rear air shock kit for my 64 mercury Montclair (2 door) im told its the same as a 60 to 64 full size ford any help ?

Asked
Gabriel does not show a direct fit application for this car. Nothing matches close enough for us to recommend.


What would the ride height be with 25lbs of air my ride height is 11 1/2 trying to find a shock that will fit a lowered 69 c15 p.u. thanks

Asked
Gabriel Hi Jackers are designed for stock height vehicles. Unfortunately, they do not make shocks specifically for lowered applications. We would need to know the compressed height and extended height you are looking for or a cross to an existing shock part number


Is there a way to make these shocks perform better in cold snowy weather?

Asked
We are not aware of any modifications that can be made to a shock to make it perform better in cold weather.


What size is the air line?

Asked
Gabriel Hi Jacker shocks use 1/8 inch air line.

do they deflate quickly?

Asked
Yes, the air volume is relatively low so Gabriel air shocks will inflate and deflate quickly. As soon as you depress the fill valve to let air out you will have movement in the shocks.


I have a 08 silverado 1500...what do you suggest for nonelectric air shocks

Asked
We do not have any air shocks for a 2008 Silverado 1500. Gabriel currently does not have any available. We typically use Bilstein shocks for ride / handling and if you need extra support when towing we use air bags or a Timbren kit. Feel free to call us at 1-800-358-4751 if you have any questions.
