Importance of shock guards!!
What could possibly damage your shocks you ask?
Your shocks can be damaged by a numerous of things, but let’s start with a few good reasons!
Potholes and large rocks - can damage your shocks significantly, causing them to become damaged and break.
Dirt Roads -Although dirt roads can be fun, they also generate a ton of dust and sand. Once the dust gets into your seals of your shocks, the fluid can start to leak out and we don't want that!
Mud - Mud can cause a build up, getting into the inner components of your shocks. This can damage seals, causes leaks, and diminishes the ability for them to absorb the impact.
These are just a few things that can cause damage to your shocks and leave you with having to replace them. 😢
Our Shock Guards are made out of 3/16th Steel, and the rugged design creates a guard that can withstand the most demanding trails! 😍
In addition to protecting the most exposed part of the shock, the guard also extends to protect the shock shaft from pits and abuse, extending shock life from leaks and tears of the shock shaft seal.
Our design also includes a drain hole placed at the lowest point of the guard to prevent lingering of water during water crossings.
