Front & Rear Spring Assist

Load Carrier by Gabriel

The Front & Rear Spring Assist (Load Carrier) by Gabriel is the perfect combination of shock and spring technology to help 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. Like all Gabriel shocks and struts, Front & Rear Spring Assist feature:

• A super-finished chromed piston rod to inhibit corrosion, ensure proper seal lubrication, and provide a more consistent wear surface
• A leak-proof piston seal which helps extend product life
• D.O.M. (Drawn-Over-Mandrel) Tubing reduces internal wear for longer product life

Gabriel Product Features

A Brand You Can Trust All Gabriel products feature a super-finished chromed piston rod, which provides superior corrosion resistance, performance, and product life.	Leak-Proof Piston Seal The leak-proof piston seal self-compensates for wear, extending product life. This feature is available on all Gabriel products.	Pressure Tube - Smoothed Seam Gabriel's metal forged D.O.M. (Drawn Over Mandrel) process removes weld seam imperfections from the tube surface. This smoother surface reduces friction and leads to longer product life.
