Review: Fits a 98 ranger 2wd - I was very skeptical buying this. I saw people saying it fit a ranger and some saying it didn't. I have a: 98 Ford ranger XLT 2wd, 6ft bed with front spring suspension. These were a pain to install but I was able to do it with the factory bottle jack and some jack stands. I lifted the rear up by the diff. I placed a jaclstand with a pice of 2x4 on top under the frame on the side I am working on. I removed the tire. I slowly lowered the jacl. This allowed the rear to sag so I didn't have to depress the spring as much. My old shocks were shot so they came out easily. I mounted the top of the new shocks in place amd tightened it a few threads. I placed the bottle jack alittle forward of the bottom mount. The shock is still too long so I had to pry it so that it sat on top of the jack. I lifted the jack so it sat near where I needed it to be. I used a flat head to try and pry it into place and a Phillips to push through the bolt hole and then guide the mounting bolt through. Hopefully this quick writeup helps someone in the future. Car feels like it handles way better and it sits even. No more rear end sag. Will update later on longevity. Review: Coil over shocks - Great item. Went on easy, fit like a glove hope i get many miles out of them as I did my previous ones. ## Features - SPRING ASSIST TOWING SHOCKS: Gabriel Load Carrier shocks combine shock absorber and spring technology to help reduce ride height loss under ongoing loaded conditions for towing and hauling applications - UP TO 500 LBS LOAD SUPPORT: Variable-rate rear coil springs provide up to 500 lbs of load capacity per pair to help improve stability and maintain ride height while towing or hauling cargo; does not increase vehicle payload rating - HEAVY-DUTY CONSTRUCTION: Drawn-Over-Mandrel (D.O.M.) pressure cylinder reduces internal wear, while the chromed piston rod helps resist corrosion and provides consistent sealing performance - LEAK-RESISTANT DESIGN: Engineered with a leak-proof piston seal to help extend shock life and maintain dependable ride control under demanding towing and hauling conditions - FITMENT: Direct fit for Ford Bronco, F-100, F-150, F-250, F-350, Ranger and Mazda B2300, B2500, B3000, B4000 pickup truck applications; rear shocks for RWD vehicles only; confirm fitment using desertcart Confirmed Fit. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001AMA8MM | | Auto Part Position | Rear | | Automotive Fit Type | Vehicle Specific Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #10,345 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #4 in Automotive Replacement Shocks | | Brand | Gabriel | | Brand Name | Gabriel | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | SUV, Truck, Van | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 886 Reviews | | Extended Length | 22.99 inches | | Exterior Finish | Painted | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00043645620868 | | Included Components | 2 Shocks | | Item Type Name | Suspension Spring Shock Absorber | | Item Weight | 15 pounds | | Manufacturer | Gabriel | | Manufacturer Part Number | 43167 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Warranty | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | 43167 | | Number of Items | 2 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Set Name | 43167 | | Style | 43167 | | Style Name | 43167 | | UPC | 043645620868 | | Unit Count | 2 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | SUV, Truck, Van | ## Product Details - **Auto Part Position:** Rear - **Brand:** Gabriel - **Exterior Finish:** Painted - **Style:** 43167 - **Vehicle Service Type:** SUV, Truck, Van ## Images ![Gabriel Load Carrier Spring Assit Towing & Hauling Shocks - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61imGEbM3aL.jpg) ![Gabriel Load Carrier Spring Assit Towing & Hauling Shocks - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61x2O-rA6lL.jpg) ![Gabriel Load Carrier Spring Assit Towing & Hauling Shocks - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61pYz0v1C5L.jpg) ![Gabriel Load Carrier Spring Assit Towing & Hauling Shocks - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nadqziwpL.jpg) ![Gabriel Load Carrier Spring Assit Towing & Hauling Shocks - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715gX+HDVAL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I bought the gabriel 43167 rear spring assist carrier shocks for my 2011 ford ranger and would like to match the fronts. what's the part # for fronts?** A: 34057 is the part number for the front load assist shocks. **Q: Will this fit 1988 jeep cherokee with 3.5 in lift, for towing?** A: No **Q: will it fit 2015 ford super duty crew cab. gabriel 43167.** A: I have a f-250 4x4 they would fit I had problems with the front ones **Q: Is the compression of the coil adjustable?** A: Currently the design of this shock does not allow for adjustment.
