High-Performance Upgrade over OE shocks with Dual-Compression External Adjusters

The 2.5 DC RESERVOIR shocks provide the optimal combination of:

  • Firm and stable handling for driving on desert and fire roads;
  • Plush compliance while off-road driving over washboard;
  • Strong ramping effect for extra bottom-out protection over large dips and washes;
  • Maximum articulation and traction for rock climbing.

The 2.5 DC RESERVOIR model allows precise fine-tuning of the high-& low-speed compression damping so you can adapt the suspension for your specific driving style and terrain conditions without compromise. It also features an external reservoir with increased oil volume for cooler operating temperature, providing better performance and consistency

2.5 DC RESERVOIR  // BENEFITS

  • Wide range of highly effective compression adjustment
  • Precise fine-tuning of high-& low-speed compression, no need to compromise with your settings
  • High-performance off-road capabilities
  • Improved handling and comfort for casual driving
  • Better traction
  • Increased protection against bottoming-out

2.5 DC RESERVOIR // AVAILABLE CONFIGURATIONS

  • 2.5 Front & Rear shocks kit

  • 2.5 Front shocks only

  • 2.5 Rear shocks only

  • Offered in several lengths to cover most popular lift kits with ranges between 0 to 5.5 in. of lift

2.5 DC RESERVOIR // RIDE ENHANCEMENTS

  • Better attenuation of vibration, leading to major noise reduction in the cabin (much less squeak and rattle)
  • Damping characteristics optimized for each Jeep model, providing a smoother ride
  • Increased comfort in both on road and off-road conditions, especially over washboard and square-edge impacts
  • More stable and more predictable handling

  • Reduced front-end diving when cornering or braking

  • Reduced rear-end bucking and lifting
  • Increased damping and spring rate for better handling when adding payload

2.5 DC RESERVOIR // TECHNICAL FEATURES

  • Massive 2.5 in. (56mm) hard-anodized aluminum body for cooler operation

  • External remote reservoir with low-friction floating piston (1:1 ratio vs. main piston) providing additional cooling with DOT high-flow reservoir hose

  • Gas-pressurized design with internal floating piston to help prevent fading
  • Internal hydraulic valving optimized for each vehicle platform
  • Built from CNC-machined and forged aluminum parts, aluminum bodies and premium-quality internal components
  • Heavy-duty 3/4 in. (19mm) induction-hardened shaft
  • Triple sealing system with dust wiper, high-pressure step-seal and premium quality o-ring
  • Direct, bolt-on replacement that uses stock shocks location
  • Proprietary ultra-low friction, light viscosity semi-synthetic oil blend, ultra-resistant to high operating temperature

  • Fully rebuildable using affordable replacements parts and springs, multiple replacement valving shim stacks available

HIGH-SPEED COMPRESSION

Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed quickly. This adjustment controls the resistance upon landing from jumps, harsh or sudden square-edged impacts, riding at high speed over whoops, choppy terrain or tire tracks.

To use, turn the black knob clockwise to increase damping resistance, therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance, therefore making the suspension softer.

LOW-SPEED COMPRESSION

Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed slowly. This adjustment controls body roll when cornering, squatting under hard acceleration, front-end diving when braking, riding over whoops at moderate speed, undulations and elevation changes in the terrain.

To use, turn the red knob clockwise to increase damping resistance, therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance, therefore making the suspension softer.
