Gabriel 61703 ProGuard Rear Shock Absorber for Light Trucks & SUVs

The Gabriel 61703 ProGuard Shock Absorber is a heavy-duty OE replacement shock engineered for exceptional comfort and control in light trucks, SUVs, and vans. Designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, the ProGuard delivers a noticeable step up in ride quality, handling stability, and long-term durability.

At the heart of the ProGuard is a larger diameter piston that provides better-than-OE damping response. The oversized reservoir tube increases oil capacity, enabling faster heat dissipation to significantly reduce shock fade — whether you're dealing with stop-and-go city traffic or demanding off-road terrain.

Key Features:

• Larger diameter piston for improved damping response and sportier handling over OE
• Oversized reservoir tube for faster heat dissipation and reduced shock fade
• Super-finished chromed piston rod resists corrosion, ensures proper seal lubrication, and provides a consistent wear surface
• Leak-proof piston seal extends product service life
• D.O.M. (Drawn-Over-Mandrel) tubing reduces internal wear for longer shock life
• Low-friction oil seal for greater ride comfort and extended durability
• Extended length: 20.15 in. | Collapsed length: 13.96 in. | Stroke: 6.19 in.
• Upper mounting code: ES83 | Lower mounting code: ES83

Gabriel has been the originator of automotive shock absorber technology since 1907, pioneering the hydraulic shock absorber, the adjustable shock absorber, and more. The ProGuard line reflects over a century of ride control innovation, and is backed by Gabriel's commitment to quality across every product in their lineup.
