G-Force is the culmination of years of testing and product development efforts. Exclusively designed to deliver the perfect combination of safety and performance that you’ll only find in our line of Gabriel® Ultra™ shocks and struts, and ReadyMount® struts; it’s shock absorber technology that other manufacturers simply can’t replicate. In fact, it’s so unique that Gabriel was awarded the 2004 Editor’s Choice Award from Popular Mechanics for New Product Design and Innovation.

But that shouldn’t be a surprise. We’ve built a well-earned reputation for innovation by continuously reinventing shock absorber design and technology. It’s the only way we can continue to exceed the expectations of our customers and continue to “ride the independent spirit” for another 100 years.

For the ultimate in safety, control, and performance – there’s nothing like Gabriel’s G-Force™ Technology.
