This OE-grade Gabriel Shock Absorber, distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires, is the long damper that covers Mack front suspension across the CHN, CHU (Pinnacle), CT, CTP, GU (Granite), TD (Titan), CXN (Vision), CXP and CXU chassis, and doubles as a trailer air-ride shock on Hendrickson, Ridewell and SAF Holland suspensions. When a front shock quits on a Mack the symptoms are unmistakable: the front end pitches on every dip, the cab shakes, and the steer tires start wearing in scallops. We stock these heavily right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse to ensure lightning-fast shipping for fleets, trailer repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.
Long-Stroke Control: The Gabriel 85014 Advantage
This damper measures 21.76in extended and 13.74in collapsed - a genuinely long working stroke that suits the tall front suspension travel of a Mack highway or vocational chassis. It uses an ES36 eye mount (0.75in ID x 1.75in sleeve) at both ends, includes a dust tube to keep grit and salt spray off the rod, and adds a recoil cutoff to manage the rebound stroke instead of throwing the axle back down after every bump. On the trailer side, note that this is the T15-324 applications only unit - verify before install.
At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a Mack front-end complaint is usually a shock, not a steering box. This Gabriel damper is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Gabriel 85014, Mack 14QK421M, Mack 14QK434M, Hendrickson S2160 and Ridewell AS789B.
