Complete parts set for assembling 2 large-bore rear shock absorbers for XT8. Includes dark blue (hard) springs. The XT8 shocks are big bore and longer than standard XB8 shocks thus providing excellent damping characteristics and accommodating the increased suspension downtravel on the XT8.
Shocks are CNC-machined and hard-anodized at the XRAYs own in-house fully robotic hardcoating line, ensuring maximum smoothness inside the shock body and thus ultra-free movement of the pistons. The kit includes three (1.3, 1.4, 1.5mm) pistons, which are mated to heavy-duty 3.5mm shock shafts made from especially hardened steel for smooth shock action. The tops of the shocks feature aluminum caps and rubber boots to prevent dirt build up. The short rubber boots work very well in contrast to standard full-size boots, which usually tear over time. The short rubber boots feature a special hard foam protector which ensures that no dust gets into the lower shock assembly.
