Falcon
Hot on the heels of our Jeep Wrangler performance shocks, Falcon Shocks has entered the truck performance market with its new line of Falcon Truck Performance Systems for Ford F-150, RAM 1500, Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra 1500, and Toyota Tacoma.
Current Falcon Truck Performance Systems include the Sport Leveling System and the Sport Tow/Haul Leveling System. But these kits are more than just replacement shocks. These complete shock absorber systems include all of the parts and accessories required to give your pickup a sporty and controlled ride and/or increased towing and hauling capabilities.
Falcon Performance Shocks are the new benchmark in shock development!
