## Overview

Gabriel 43181 Load Carrier shocks combine advanced shock absorption with variable-rate spring assist technology to reduce ride height loss during heavy towing and hauling. Designed for a precise fit on popular trucks like Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, these durable shocks feature corrosion-resistant chromed piston rods and D.O.M. tubing for extended life.

## Description

Load Carrier by Gabriel combine shock and spring technology to reduce the loss of ride height in ongoing loaded conditions. The constant-rate front coil springs can help improve stability and restore or maintain ride height, while the variable-rate rear coil springs provide 500 lbs. per pair of load capacity [Not to exceed vehicle GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). Product does not increase payload]. And like all Gabriel shocks and struts, Front & Rear Spring Assist feature a super-finished chromed piston rod for superior corrosion resistance and a leak-proof piston seal which extends product life.

Review: 94 K1500 4X4 Love These - 94 K1500 4X4 Stock, no lift, no leveling. Great Shock. Lifted my saggy truck back up at least 1.5", look cool, simple install. Before you screw up your ride with expensive leveling and lift kits, put a pair of these cool shocks on. I recommend taking a ratchet strap and cutting off the strap and then cutting off the hook on the remaining strap. So you just have the ratchet and the strap (no hooks). Then tie the strap back onto the ratchet and bingo you have a hookless strap that you can tighten up the shock with. In my rig it was even easy to install the strap after the shock was attached to the upper bolts. Compress the shock and install the lower bolt, then remove the strap. If you have your truck properly jacked up, you only need to compress 1/2 inch or less. Makes it safer and easier. If you don't know what you're doing, don't do it. Shocks are great, look good, ride good. It's a stiffer ride, but it's on a truck. I love them and the price is very reasonable.
Review: Buen producto - De momento me han salido muy bien se siente un poquito más rígida la suspensión y si aumento un poco la capacidad de carga

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will these fit my 2006 chevy 2500**
A: The shocks on your 2500 are about 2.5 inches longer than these.  Yes they have the same end mounts, but not recommended due to length.   Thanks for your interest we use customer input to help increase coverage.

**Q: What dose thw notes mean this is a ca prop**
A: Prop 65 listing is provided because the product contains hydraulic fluid which needs to be recycled properly when the product is disposed of.

**Q: Will these fit a 6” lift on a 2011 silverado**
A: 43181 is intended for stock height Silverado pickups only.

**Q: will these fit 2021 2500hd silverado?**
A: 43181 fits the 2020 2500HD and it appears there were no major changes for 2021, so odds are pretty good in your favor but at this point in time we have not received part number information to confirm the shocks are carry over.
