About Gabriel

Starting in 1907, Gabriel invented the original shock absorber, followed by the first hydraulic shock absorber, the first adjustable shock absorber and the first air adjustable shock absorber. And today, it's still that same innovative, independent American company--building high-performance shocks and struts that cover over 96% of North American vehicles. Gabriel continues adding new product coverage, including expanding their line of ReadyMount strut assemblies, which make installation faster, safer and easier. And Gabriel continues that independent spirit, working hard to deliver innovative new products and services, every day.


The Gabriel Ultra Passenger Car Shock is precision-engineered for safety and performance, and it comes equipped with G-Force technology for quicker response, improved product life, and consistent, reliable ride and control.StableSteer valving provides response from all four corners, and the G-Force piston is bonded iron construction for durability and longer life.By providing a positive seal between the piston and working cylinder, the nitrile leak-proof o-ring piston seal eliminates oil bypass. The orifice disk with variable nine-stage valving provides consistent oil flow while the heavy duty compression head valve withstands extreme impact, greatly reducing internal component failure.Preventing oil blow-by between piston rod and piston, improving operational consistency, is the nitrile rod guide o-ring.Internal nitrogen gas pressure optimizes the relationship between product component and gas pressure, reducing fade and improving vehicle control.
