Gabriel HiJackers Adjustable Rear Air Shocks — 1 Pair for Full-Size Trucks & SUVs, 1,100 lb Leveling Capacity

Gabriel HiJackers 49235 are adjustable rear air shock absorbers that let you raise and level your truck or SUV temporarily to handle towing or heavy loads, offering up to 1,100 lbs of pair-leveling capacity.

These Gabriel HiJackers are a direct-fit, air-adjustable rear shock designed for pickups and full-size SUVs. Built with a chrome-plated piston rod and a durable seal, the pair is intended for short-term towing, hauling, or when you need extra rear support without permanent suspension modifications. The shocks come with a custom fitment range for many Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, Dodge, Jeep and Nissan models and are sold as a pair.

How do these shocks change ride behavior when I’m towing?

Adding air to the HiJackers raises the rear ride height and restores more level geometry when your vehicle carries a trailer or heavy cargo. That helps maintain better handling and reduces the chance of the rear end bottoming out under load. The system is adjustable so you can fine-tune pressure depending on load weight.

• Adjustable air pressure to counter sagging from trailers or boat loads.
• Up to 1,100 lbs of leveling capability per pair (do not exceed GVWR).
• Quick inflation at service stations, with a compressor, or onboard air systems.

What makes Gabriel HiJackers durable and service-friendly?

Gabriel engineered these shocks with a chrome-finished piston rod to resist corrosion and a leak-proof piston seal for extended service life. The unit’s construction and wiper seals help keep contaminants out while preserving smooth operation. They’re also designed as direct replacements, minimizing installation time and the need for extra hardware.

• Chrome-plated piston rod for improved corrosion resistance.
• Deluxe wiper and leak-proof seals to prolong component life.
• Custom-sized for direct-fit, simplifying installation.

How easy is installation and everyday use?

Installation follows the vehicle-specific instructions and uses the stock mounting codes for a straightforward swap. The shocks are intended as a temporary support solution — inflate them when hauling and return to standard pressure for normal driving. Gabriel includes an air hose kit when applicable and it can be purchased separately if needed.

• Direct-fit design with ES34 upper/lower mount codes for correct alignment.
• Includes Gabriel Air Hose Kit when applicable; sold in pairs.
• Recommended to torque fasteners to manufacturer specifications during install.
