I have a 99' L and this morning I noticed one of the "kicker shocks" had broken loose. These are mounted above the rear leaf spring. The front attaches to the U bolt bracket and the back has a bracket that loops over the top of the rear shackle it has a large spring in between. I assume these are designed to stop "axle wrap" or hop.

The question is are these stock or aftermarket ( I bought the truck used ) If they are aftermarket, does anybody know who manufactured them so I can buy a replacement?

Thanks for any help...

 

Definitely not stock.

You need to post a photo to get more info.

 

sounds almost like the roadmaster active suspenison...

 

eh....

 

it is a traction and overload system......what is confusing?
