Installation notes
Installation with cotter pin or special mounting bolt depending on the mounting point. Special mounting washers (approx. 5/8" inner Ø, 1 5/16" outer Ø) are offered separately. For correct dimensions, check whether the shock absorber is compatible with your specific vehicle variant and any lift kits.
Compatibility
The category lists CJ-3A and CJ-3B. Note: for vehicles with lifted suspension, extended shock absorbers may be necessary. Always check free travel and length before installation. Front and rear shock absorbers may have the same dimensions on early CJ models, but this varies by year and version.
Historical context
Shock absorbers on early Willys jeeps were originally mechanical double-acting dampers. From the 1950s onwards, gas-filled hydraulic shock absorbers became increasingly common for civilian applications, with significantly improved comfort.
