Skyjacker 188BKS-AB 8 in. Suspension Lift Kit with Black MAX Shocks

The Skyjacker 188BKS-AB is a complete 8-inch front and rear suspension lift system designed to dramatically increase ground clearance and improve both on- and off-road performance. Engineered to maintain a smooth, comfortable ride while delivering the height and attitude your truck demands, this Standard Series lift kit comes ready to install with all required mounting hardware and detailed instructions.

Included with this kit are Skyjacker's signature Black MAX twin-tube foam-cell hydraulic shock absorbers. These shocks feature increased fluid capacity and proprietary foam-cell technology that compresses to compensate for oil expansion as the shock heats up under hard use — maintaining consistent damping performance across the full operating temperature range. The foam-cell design also eliminates air from inside the shock body, allowing for directional mounting flexibility. Arc-welded end mounts and vehicle-specific valving complete the package for maximum durability and value.
