Description
Sport Leveling:
The 2014+ Chevrolet Silverado 1500 | 2014+ GMC Sierra 1500: Falcon Sport Leveling Shock Absorber System delivers increased stability and control as well as improved ride quality and comfort both on and off-road. These compact and affordable shocks are ideal for daily driven vehicles.
ZRT - Zone Rate Tuning:
Zone Rate Tuning (ZRT) manipulates the factory linear-rate spring tuning to produce three distinct performance zones with a more exaggerated spring curve to tackle various driving conditions.
An internal negative-rate spring offsets the factory spring's preload while in the Extension Zone. This eliminates top out clunk and shock stress at full extension, while softening tire landing and reducing body roll on impact during aggressive driving.
The factory spring rate is unaffected in Drive Zone for a comfortable and controlled ride. A provided progressive microcellular bump stop effectively retunes the spring rate while in Compression Zone to reduce bottoming and body roll during aggressive driving.
VOD - Volume Optimized Damping:
Traditional velocity sensitive shock absorbers react quickly during low speed driving causing excessive "head toss" on rough terrain or even driveways. Conventional damping then firms up during faster speeds resulting in a jarring ride.
Falcon's proprietary Volume Optimized Damping (VOD) features a digressive linear valve that produces quicker ramp up for increased damping volume, which improves vehicle feedback and control during low-speed driving. VOD also improves the shock absorber's ability to reduce bottoming out at full compression during faster speeds or over uneven terrain.
Features
Falcon Sport Leveling:
- Front leveling monotube shock absorbers w/ fixed rate damping optimized for on- & off-road drivingÂ
- Rear monotube shock absorbers w/ fixed rate damping optimized for on- & off-road driving
Falcon Truck Shocks:
- Vehicle-specific shock absorbersÂ
- Race-inspired performance for increased vehicle stabilityÂ
- Improved dynamic roll control & low speed dampingÂ
- Dramatic improvement in on-road comfort & off-road performanceÂ
- All testing done on E-rated tires (worst possible ride)Â
- Optimized fitment for clearance during full suspension travelÂ
- Front shock features multiple snap ring grooves to level out front endÂ
- Snap ring grooves maintain set ride height (instructions laser etched on shock body)Â
- 2.25" shock body provides optimal performanceÂ
- 6061-T6 aluminum alloy shock body resists wear & protects internal components while providing superior heat dissipationÂ
- Smooth honed internal shock body surface for long-term performanceÂ
- Largest shock body that will fit w/out modificationsÂ
- 3/4" induction hardened chrome plated shaft resists rock damage & corrosion as well as prevents shaft bucklingÂ
- Maximum shaft diameter allows for more precise tuningÂ
- Hard anodized billet pistonÂ
- 1-piece Teflon bronze piston wear band w/ O-ringÂ
- Digressive linear piston & base valve technologyÂ
- Volume Optimized Damping (VOD) features a digressive linear piston for quicker ramp up & increased damping volumeÂ
- Inline OGS (Oil/Gas Separator) prevents cavitationÂ
- Zone Rate Tuning (ZRT) retunes the factory spring in the Extension, Drive & Compression zonesÂ
- Negative spring inside shock body eliminates top out clunk, softens tire landing, & reduces body roll & stress on shockÂ
- Application-specific tuned bump stop reduces bottoming out & body rollÂ
- High-quality spherical bushings (when applicable)Â
- Zerk fittings to lube bushing (when applicable)Â
- Red Line full synthetic shock oil with high viscosity index of 519 for consistent performance across all temperatures & reduced shock fadeÂ
- Synthetic formula also contains special anti-wear & lubricity agents for excellent thermal stabilityÂ
- 1,000-hour salt spray corrosion resistance test on all hardwareÂ
- Serviceable & rebuildable (factory serviced)Â
- Built in-house at the TeraFlex Falcon Shock DivisionÂ
- Patent pending designÂ
- 3-year warranty
Notes
ÂNever exceed factory tow/haul ratings.
