    MetalCloak RockSport Slate Front Shocks (Pair) – Jeep Wrangler JL 2018+ / Jeep Gladiator JT 2019+

    RockSport Slate is MetalCloak’s twin-tube long-travel front shock option with the same valving philosophy as the classic RockSport Red, packaged in a new “Slate” look. It’s built to pair with MetalCloak suspension systems and deliver a clean balance of comfort on pavement and controlled damping when the trail gets rough.

    Key construction details—like the built-in outboard upper mount, oversized 18mm chrome shaft, reinforced bushing eyes, natural rubber bushings, and nitrogen charge—support consistent performance and durability under real off-road use. Important: these shocks will not fit a Jeep with no lift and will not fit a JT Gladiator Mojave.

    Key benefits

    • Long-travel twin-tube construction supports a softer, more compliant ride while keeping damping controlled and predictable.
    • Outer reserve gas tube acts as an added barrier for the working tube and helps protect against external damage.
    • Built-in outboard upper mount helps maintain alignment, improves articulation, and maximizes clearance in the front suspension area.
    • Oversized 18mm chrome-plated shaft improves resistance to bending under heavy load and reduces friction for long service life.
    • Double-welded bushing eyes strengthen the shock ends for impact-heavy off-road driving.
    • Natural rubber bushings help absorb vibration/harshness while keeping mounting points solid over time.
    • Nitrogen charge helps resist fading by reducing aeration/foaming in the hydraulic fluid during repeated impacts.
