Upgrade your vehicle’s suspension with the Skyjacker Black MAX shock absorber, part number B8557. Designed for select 1980–1989 Ford Bronco applications, this twin-tube shock absorber uses advanced foam-cell technology to help deliver consistent damping performance during everyday driving and demanding suspension use. The foam-cell insert compresses as the shock heats up, compensating for oil expansion and helping maintain reliable performance across a broad operating temperature range.
The foam-cell design also removes air from inside the shock, allowing flexible mounting in any direction while helping reduce aeration-related performance changes. Select-specific valving is engineered to provide controlled suspension response, while arc-welded end mounts add strength and durability at key attachment points. This combination makes the Skyjacker Black MAX B8557 a practical replacement or upgrade for drivers seeking dependable ride control and long-lasting suspension performance.
The Skyjacker B8557 has a collapsed length of 15.560 inches, an extended length of 26.790 inches, and 11.230 inches of shock travel. Verify vehicle year, model, suspension configuration, and mounting requirements before ordering to ensure proper fitment. This shock absorber is listed for 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, and 1989 Ford Bronco models.
