Outback Kitters 2.5" Reservoir Shocks for Ram 1500 DT (2019+)

Control The Heat. Control The Track.

Australia has a way of exposing weak suspension.

The first few kilometres feel fine. Then the corrugations keep coming. Heat builds inside the shock. The oil starts to thin. Damping fades. The truck begins to float, wallow and wander across the track.

That's when the drive becomes work.

The Outback Kitters 2.5" Remote Reservoir Shock was engineered for the trips where ordinary shocks run out of thermal capacity. More oil. More cooling surface. More consistent damping when the road refuses to smooth out.

Because the reservoir isn't there to look impressive.

It's there to manage heat.

Built specifically for heavier American trucks, these shocks stay composed under sustained load, giving your Ram 1500 the control it needs from the first corrugation to the last.

Whether you're carrying a canopy, drawers, recovery gear, water, camping equipment or the family for weeks on the road, these shocks are engineered to keep the truck planted for the whole journey—not just the first twenty minutes.

Built For The Whole Trip. Not The First 20 Minutes.

Heat is the enemy of every shock absorber.

Every corrugation forces oil through the valving, generating heat. The longer the road, the hotter the shock becomes. As temperatures rise, damping performance drops. That's when suspension begins to lose control.

The external finned reservoir increases oil capacity while adding cooling surface area, allowing the shock to manage heat far more effectively over extended distances.

The result is simple.

Consistent damping.

Consistent control.

Confidence that lasts long after ordinary shocks begin to fade.

Why A Remote Reservoir Matters

More Oil Capacity

More suspension oil means greater thermal stability under continuous punishment, helping damping remain consistent over long-distance corrugations.

Finned Remote Reservoir

The finned aluminium reservoir sheds heat efficiently, allowing the shock to stay composed when temperatures continue climbing.

Custom Valved For American Trucks

Purpose-built valving matches the additional weight and suspension characteristics of full-size American pickups, delivering controlled movement without unnecessary harshness.

Long Reservoir Hose

Provides flexibility when mounting the reservoir for cleaner installation and improved airflow.

Rotating Hose Heads

Simplifies installation while allowing the reservoir to be positioned exactly where it performs best.

Zinc-Plated 2.5" Steel Body

Large-diameter steel construction with zinc plating helps resist corrosion while providing the oil capacity needed for sustained performance.

Rubber Protective Boot

Helps shield the shock shaft from stones, mud and debris encountered during serious touring.

Good To Know

Price is per shock.

Why Choose Outback Kitters Remote Reservoir Shocks?

A remote reservoir isn't about appearance.

It's about maintaining control when heat becomes the limiting factor.

When the track stretches for hundreds of kilometres, the suspension shouldn't gradually lose confidence. It should deliver the same composed damping hour after hour, carrying the weight of a properly equipped touring truck without turning every corrugation into a fight for control.

The Outback Kitters 2.5" Remote Reservoir Shock is the step beyond a monotube for drivers who travel further, carry more and expect their suspension to perform for the entire journey.

More oil. More cooling. More consistency.

Built for the whole trip.
