Falcon Series 3. 1 Piggyback Shocks deliver increased stability,
improved ride quality, and comfort on road, while the increased
compression damping provides more aggressive off-road handling.
Fixed-rate Series 3. 1 shocks have been optimized for on- and
off-road driving. Volume Optimized Damping Falcon’s proprietary
Volume Optimized Damping (VOD) features a digressive linear valve
to improve vehicle feedback, stability, and control during
low-speed, high-speed, and off-road driving. As the piston
compresses and rebounds, the valve restricts oil flow creating a
damping effect. VOD’s quicker ramp up increases damping volume
during low-speed driving as well as reduces shock bottoming at
full compression during faster speeds or over uneven terrain.
Traditional velocity sensitive shock absorbers react quickly
during low-speed driving causing excessive “head toss” on rough
terrain – or even driveways. Conventional damping then firms up
during faster shaft speeds resulting in a jarring ride. With
Volume Optimized Damping, stability and control are maintained
throughout all driving conditions. Falcon History: Historically,
universal shock absorbers and steering stabilizers have been
adapted to fit many applications with minimal tuning. Falcon
Performance Shocks rewrites the book on damper development. These
new shock absorbers and steering stabilizers are engineered to
meet the unique requirements of the Wrangler and Wrangler
Unlimited. These Jeep-specific shock absorbers deliver increased
stability, improved ride quality, and comfort for daily driven
vehicles as well as race-inspired performance, handling, and
stability for off-road rigs. Built from the ground up with a
focus on fitment and function, Falcon’s corner-specific Series 3
Piggyback and Series 2 Monotube shock absorbers and
Wrangler-specific Nexus EF 2 steering stabilizers deliver the
best damping characteristics possible. After a lengthy and
painstaking development process, we have delivered these advanced
dampers to the awaiting Jeep market. Fits: JKU Wrangler Unlimited
