McGaughys Rear Shock Extenders - 1988-1998 Chevy/GMC C/K1500

Dropped your rear end and now your factory shocks are maxed out or bottoming out early? McGaughys' Rear Shock Extenders solve exactly that problem, relocating your lower shock mount to restore proper shock travel and geometry after a rear lowering job. Without correcting shock mounting, a dropped truck can bottom its shocks out over bumps, leading to a harsh ride and premature shock failure.

These extenders are precision engineered for the C/K1500 chassis and bolt in at your factory lower shock mount, giving your shock the working travel it needs at your new, lowered ride height. It's a small, inexpensive part that makes a massive difference in ride quality after a rear drop, exactly the kind of detail that separates a properly finished lowering job from one that rides rough and wears out parts early.

McGaughys builds these extenders in-house with the same laser-cutting and CNC precision they've applied to lowering hardware for nearly four decades, ensuring correct fitment and durability under the added stress of a lowered ride height. Pair these with any rear drop kit, whether it's shackles, hangers, or a full deluxe kit, to make sure your shocks are working the way they're supposed to.

Fits 1988-1998 Chevrolet and GMC C/K1500 trucks. If you've already lowered your rear end and noticed a harsher ride or shocks that seem to be working overtime, these extenders are likely the missing piece. Add them to your lowering kit from the start to avoid the guesswork entirely.
