MetalCloak RockSport BLACK – front reservoir shocks (Jeep Wrangler JK 2007–2018)

RockSport BLACK is a set of MetalCloak front shocks with external remote reservoirs and compression adjustment. It’s a solution for the Jeep JK when you want more control over suspension performance both off-road and on-road, plus the ability to quickly “dial in” the feel without swapping parts.

The large 2.5" shock body and robust construction are designed for demanding use: long off-road sections, increased load, and higher operating temperatures.
