Shock Extender

Shock Extenders for Lowered Trucks and SUVs | DJM Suspension

Shock extenders solve a common problem you face after lowering your vehicle. Your factory shocks become too long for the new suspension geometry, causing bottoming out and poor ride quality. Rear shock extenders relocate your shock mounting points to restore proper travel and damping performance.

DJM Suspension has been in the industry since the early 1970s. Our American-made shock extenders give you the reliable solution you need to complete your suspension setup. Every bracket we produce meets strict quality standards for your safety and satisfaction.

FAQs

Why do I need shock extenders after lowering my truck?

Lowering your vehicle reduces the distance between the axle and the frame. Factory shocks become over-extended in this new position, limiting compression travel and causing harsh bottoming. Shock extenders restore the correct shock angle and operating range.

Will shock extenders work with my factory shocks?

Yes, our shock extenders work with your factory shocks in most applications. You can also use them with aftermarket performance shocks. Check the product specifications for your specific vehicle to confirm compatibility.

How do rear shock extenders attach to my vehicle?

Rear shock extenders bolt directly to your existing shock mounting points on the frame or the axle. They relocate the mounting position to compensate for your lowered suspension height. Installation requires basic hand tools and typically takes one to two hours.

Are DJM Suspension shock extenders made in America?

We manufacture all shock extenders in the U.S. We control quality at every production step to deliver parts that meet your performance expectations. Our family-owned company has built American-made suspension components for over 50 years.

Can I install shock extenders myself?

Most DIY enthusiasts can install shock extenders with common garage tools. You need a jack, jack stands, wrenches, and basic mechanical knowledge. Always follow the included instructions and observe proper safety procedures when working under your vehicle.

Do shock extenders improve my ride quality?

Shock extenders do improve ride quality after lowering. Without extenders, your shocks operate outside their designed range, creating a harsh ride. Properly positioned shocks absorb bumps effectively and maintain vehicle control.
