Measured for rear shocks today.
If I did my math right, these specific Skyjacker Black Max shock’s ride height bias should be off by 1/8 or so.
My current eye-to-eye in the rear is 18 1/4” or 18.25”. These shocks show an even split at 18.15”.
Seems like a winner to me. If I did that right…

Jamison,
I ended up going with the BlackMax 8518 for my kid's 2005 rear shocks. There were conflicting measurements I saw online on Skyjacker's
website for the extended and collapsed lengths, so I called Skyjacker and spoke with a tech. He confirmed that his "book" listed the measurements as seen below and copied from their website. Not sure if this makes a difference in your decision, but thought it would be worth bringing to your attention.
Lower Mounting Code | ES24 |
---|---|
Upper Mounting Code | BP18 |
Collapsed Length | 13.93 |
Extended Length | 22.71 |
